| Seems like we’ve run into a complication |
| You made plans to be on your own |
| But I’m hopeful as a fool can be |
| Because I know that in the final scene |
| That song on the radio |
| Will turn into a situation |
| So you can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends |
| But this ain’t something just friends do |
| You can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends |
| But I know that it just ain’t true |
| Friends don’t look out at the stars and cry in arms at night |
| Saying everything will be alright |
| So you can tell yourself we’re just friends |
| If it eases your mind |
| I’ll be your friend tonight |
| You see through every last careful persuasion |
| You get out fast when I drive you home |
| You’re reaching out to me |
| When you’re looking for more than company |
| I know you’re begging for more |
| But you leave it at a conversation |
| So you can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends |
| But this ain’t something just friends do |
| You can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends |
| But I know that it just ain’t true |
| Friends don’t look out at the stars and cry in arms at night |
| Saying everything will be alright |
| So you can tell yourself we’re just friends |
| If it eases your mind |
| I’ll be your friend tonight |
| Breaking that lock on your cellophane heart |
| I can see through but you always stand guard |
| Breaking that lock on your cellophane heart |
| I can see through but you always stand guard |
| Breaking that lock on your cellophane heart |
| I can see through what you’re doing when you say |
| We’re just friends |
| This ain’t what just friends do |
| You can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends |
| But I know that it just ain’t true |
| Friends don’t look out at the stars and cry in arms at night |
| Saying everything will be alright |
| So you can tell yourself we’re just friends |
| If it eases your mind |
| I’ll be your friend tonight |
| I’ll be your friend tonight |
| I’ll be your friend |
| I’ll be your friend tonight |
