Lyrics
JUST WANNA BE FRIENDS WITH YOU
I watch you everyday, going through your paces.
I listen to what you say, and I like your style.
You?re always on my mind, just want to know more about you.
The space around you shines (glistens), and it makes me smile.
I...........just wanna be friends with you,
Don?t wanna hold hands, don?t wanna make out,
Just wanna be friends with you.
Don?t wanna be a hero in your eyes, don?t wanna have sex, don?t wanna tell lies,
Just wanna be friends with you.
Our Journey through this life, is so complicated.
You make it look so easy, with the way you move, the things you say,
the way you light up every day,
I..........just wanna be friends with you,
Don?t wanna hold hands, don?t wanna make out,
Just wanna be friends with you.
Don?t wanna be a hero in your eyes, don?t wanna have sex, don?t wanna tell lies,
Just wanna be friends with you.
So many people in this world, will hurt you with their words & with their power,
through fear, and anger.
But I will never ask you to be something more than you.
Chorus
