The perfect guy

He was my best friend for two years
he stood by me when i got hurt
he saw me through laughter and tears
and held me tight when i got burnt

at first i liked him as more than a friend
but he said he didnt see me that way
so for two years i tried to pretend
wishing he'd see me the same

he saw me get hurt by other guys
and he saw my past bring me pain
each time he would dry the tears from my eyes
and make me smile once again

as he talked to me about this or that girl
i gave him advice with a smile
i just wanted to be in his world
to have him as mine for a while

so we talked innocent as close friends do
and one day it began to be more
he started flirting so i flirted too
hoping what i wanted was in store

for weeks we continued to flirt
i knew something had to be up
but it simply broke my heart
what if it was just a game between us?

eventually i found his true goal
he wanted to make me his
i knew he was the guy to make me whole
and i didn't need to prove it with a kiss

what a better boyfriend then my best friend?
he's seen me happy and he's seen me cry
this is the perfect happy end
that i wanted with my perfect guy!!!
