"Just friends," was what you said
And I gradually accepted it
But in the back of my mind
I didn’t want to be “just friendsâ€
I wanted it to be more than that
I wanted you back in my life
The word “I Love You!†still lingers in my mouth
Never want to say it to another woman but you
The feeling of contentment to be with you
Is what I continue to seek for
I can’t exactly lay it out on the table
Instead I want to show you how much I love you
Just friends, keeps playing on my mind
Like a broken record that can’t be fixed
I can’t take just being your friend
I want to be the woman that you come home to
With open arms and a love so true
The woman that you yell at the top of your lungs
And still love deep within your heart
Selfish as it may sound
I want you all to my self
Never wanting to share you with anyone but me
Picturing you by my side
Is a dream that is yet to unfold
Patiently waiting for that day
When you and I find our way back
to each other’s arms
And yet I remain standing here
As just your friend.
