Just Friends

Stanza 1:
Late night chats
What you doing? Where you at?
Getting to know each other
And boy you must know
I cherish you more than I show
But it don't really matter

Refrain:
Don't get me wrong
I think you're getting the wrong impression
I like you
But not how you want me to

Chorus:
I can't love you
More than a friend could do
So can we try to back up
Just a little bit
Try to take a seat think it through
Maybe your head's just messing up with you

2nd Stanza:
Hey what's up?
Got a sec? Can I talk to you?
Can't make this sound better
But this has gone too far
I can tell what's in your heart
Gotta make it clearer

(Repeat refrain and chorus)

Bridge:
Seconds turn to minutes
Minutes into hours
Hours into days
And days turn to weeks
But no matter what you do
This will never push through
Coz I can only love you
Like a friend could do

Great write! I think that a lot of people will be able to relate to these lyrics; I know that it's something that I've had to experience before, definitely. I really like how all of your lyrics seem so general, yet manage to maintain a sense of individuality in terms of the story and the experience that you describe. In this particular piece, I really loved the bridge at the very end. The last couple of lines really hit home for me, because they're words that I've both heard, and have had to say before. Nice work,

Those folks that want only to be good friends leave us confused and sometime disappointed. A very good poem. The flow was good. like music. A excellent poem.
