Just A Friend

(album: Ready To Fly - 2014)

I saw you in the hallway,
With all of your friends,
And everything around me moved in slow motion,
The girls think I'm crazy,
I kinda agree,
But it's hard to be cool enough whenever you look at me,

And I can be immature when I'm lying on the floor,
Photoshopping us together like I'm all yours.
But you just learned my name,
And I think that's kinda wack,
Have you seen my sweet shoes and my new backpack yet?

Somebody tell you why this hurts so bad,
Why can't I find someone like my dad, (I love you dad)

Why can't you just see what I see,
When you say I'm just a friend, you tell me I'm just friend,
I think I could make you happy,
But you say I'm just a friend, you tell me I'm just a friend,
So I'll be that, that, that,
Oh I'll be that, that, that,
I guess that's that, that, that,
But I don't wanna be just that,

You probably think I'm too young to feel this way,
To you I'm a crush that just won't go away,
So even if you move on and have a happy life,
I promise I will pray for you, 'cause I'll be doing fine,

See I can try to be mature like nothing's really wrong,
But you probably know I'm faking by the time you hear this song,
And I don't mind saying how I feel, as long as I stay true and keep it real,

Somebody tell you why love takes so long,
I think I'll just watch Reba with my mom (yeah)

Why can't you just see what I see,
When you say I'm just a friend, you tell me I'm just friend,
I think I could make you happy,
But you say I'm just a friend, you tell me I'm just a friend,
So I'll be that, that, that,
Oh I'll be that, that, that,
I guess that's that,
(I dunno baby sis)
But I don't wanna be
(But I 'ma tell you like this)

Ha
You ain't gotta rush love, girl, slow down,
(Okay)
When you meet him you gon' know, wanna know how?
(How?)
He gon' treat you right,
Make you the queen of life,
If he don't then I'm a take 'em out,
Sike, all kidding aside God has the perfect,
One that was made for you, designed to worship,
(I know)
God and He sees your beauty and true purpose,
So baby sis, trust the process, it's worth it,

So Father, I will place this in your hands,
(That's right)
You know me and all my crazy plans,
Humbly I surrender this to You, (all to you Lord)
So I'll keep dreaming,
You'll keep coming through,
(You keep coming through)

I know You see what I don't see,
(You see what I don't see)
So I'll be just a friend,
I'll be just a friend,
I know that I will be happy,
Even if I'm just a friend,
I'll be just a friend,
So yeah, that's that, that, that,
Oh that's that, that, that,
I'll be that, that, that
I'm telling you,
I'll be just that...
