Losing A Friend

(الألبوم: Second Life - 2020)

I used to fly close to the sun then one day I crashed
I started clipping my wings, said broken wasn't so bad
Even though I had a dream to be someone's other half
I chose to stay on my feet, I chose to stay on my feet
But then I looked up and I saw you flying
Just like a dove on my horizon
And despite all my baggage, all the pain I've been hiding
I wanna fly up to you but my scars know better

Last night I started writing you a text
With a song that I wrote about you when we met
I was about to hit send but I didn't want us to end
'Cause winning a lover ain't worth losing a friend

So I'm keeping you close but never too close
Keeping you close but never too close
Keeping you close but never too close
'Cause winning a lover ain't worth losing a friend

I'm just holding my breath, don't know what to do next
Girl, I took you to prayer but I didn't like what He said
Said I gotta give it time, yeah, know I've gotta let it go
I've gotta trust in the Provider, embracing being on my own
It's so easy to say that but it's harder to do
Girl, I hit replay on a night out with you
With you I was home, home, home, wish time coulda froze, froze, oh
Wanted to say something, but girl I know better

Last night I started writing you a text
With a song that I wrote about you when we met
I was about to hit send but I didn't want us to end
'Cause winning a lover ain't worth losing a friend

So I'm keeping you close but never too close
Keeping you close but never too close
Keeping you close but never too close
'Cause winning a lover ain't worth losing a friend

I don't wanna be friends, I don't wanna be friends
But girl I'ma be your friend
I don't wanna be friends, I don't wanna be friends
But girl I'ma be your friend
I don't feel nothing, you don't feel nothing, girl can we please pretend?
Hearts have been frozen, bridges were broken, gotta be me again

Last night I thought about taking a shot
Confessing it all to you from the heart
Girl, I would tell you the truth, but what would you do if you knew?
That's why winning your loving ain't worth losing you

I'm keeping you close but never too close
Keeping you close but never too close
Keeping you close but never too close
'Cause winning a lover ain't worth losing a friend

I don't wanna lose you, baby
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna lose you, baby
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna lose you, baby
I don't wanna be friends
'Cause it's not worth it
'Cause it's not worth it
(I don't wanna be friends) oh-oh, oh-oh, oh

I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna be friends
