I got a message from you last night on the phone
You said you're missing me and I should call you
And after all the things we've been through in the end
I can't believe that we can't do what friends do
And I'm here
To tell you
I never broke my promise to you
No fear
No pressure
On you
But if we are just friends
Then how come I'm crying
You laugh
While inside I'm dying
Pretend
For your sake I'm lying
Be strong
You know that I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends
I still remember how you looked at me that way
Like I was everything you ever wanted
I didn't mean to let you down the way I did
Darkness descended and we just can't stop it
And you're here
To remind me
Of the things I said I would do
Don't you worry my dear
I'm right here
For you
But if we are just friends
Then how come I'm crying
You laugh
While inside I'm dying
Pretend
For your sake I'm lying
Be strong
You know that I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends
I'm trying to let you go free
If that's what you need from me
To let you go free
If that's what you need from me
Oh we are, we are, we are, we are just friends
