only friends

I swear I'm so naive
I need to get a clue
But everytime you call my name
I go running back to you

I swore that it was over
I told you not to call
But I guess you didn't listen
You didn't hear what I said at all

I was talking to your boy
I heard you in the back
You asked if you could talk to me
You swore you'd make it fast

So he handed you the phone
You asked me how I'd been
I told you I was okay
And that we could still be friends

You called me again later that day
To see what I had planned that night
And when you asked me to stop and see you
Like an idiot, I said alright

I swore I'd make it quick
No more reminiscing about us
But you told me that you missed me
You just had to bring "us" up

I didn't wanna fall for you
I swore that I'd be strong
The wounds were still fresh in my mind
Of how I was done so wrong

You told me that you still loved me
The last nine months weren't always great
But you loved me none the less
Regardless of all of the debates

So we kept on talking
You told me about the trouble you were in
You said you had a warrant
And that you needed me as a friend

A few more days passed
And the closer we became
I slipped up and slept with you
God, I'm so ashamed

I missed the way you felt
Everytime you'd touch my skin
You made my body melt
You were making my head spin

So, we started talking
But we said we'd take it slow
And I guess I shoulda expected it
I can't believe I didn't know

I was on one line
She was on the other
Both hearing the same thing
But not knowing about eachother

But you know how it is
Too many people talk in this town
So I guess I figured it out
Because word sure got around

But how long will that last
Before you call again
Tell me that you need me
But only as a friend
