She's Just A Friend

She cried and told me of her fears today
In hope that I could make them go away
She never realized, she could not have known
That I'm just a man, with fears of my own

I'm afraid that seeing her almost everyday
That my mind will cloud and my thoughts will stray
When you're in love and only friends she wants to be
You must expect heartache, of this most agree

So I'll put on a brave face if not only for her
And knowing my happiness I will need to defer
I'll hide all my feelings and continue to pretend
That I'm not in love with her and she's just a friend
