Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Feels like I'm losing in love
At the same time losing my friend
Couldn't work it out being more
So, are we nothing in the end?

[Pre-Chorus]
I apologize for the times that it seems I lead you on
Really I was just conflicted, but I get it, I was wrong

[Chorus]
Should've just told you, could've saved you the pain
Wanted to keep my friend, but instead I strained
I don't say it to get you back, I say it cause you deserve to know
I should've never treated you ugly, you are a beautiful soul

[Verse 2]
We had times I still cherish, I hope you know
You were a good friend and you should've stayed so
Cause when we tried for more, to me, it never felt right
I didn't know it would cost me you being out of my life

[Pre-Chorus]
I apologize for the times that it seems I lead you on
Really I was just conflicted, but I get it, I was wrong

[Chorus]
Should've just told you, could've saved you the pain
Wanted to keep my friend, but instead I strained
I don't say it to get you back, I say it cause you deserve to know
I should've never treated you ugly, you are a beautiful soul

[Bridge]
So, I'm writing this to you in the end
The truth is... I was holding onto my friend
Even though I knew we had met the end
I was hoping... holding onto my friend (my friend)
Oh, my friend (my friend)
But, I should have

[Chorus]
Should've just told you, (ohhh) could've saved you the pain
(Could've saved you the hard parts)
Wanted to keep my friend, but instead I strained
(Straight from the heart)
I don't say it to get you back, I say it cause you deserve to know
(You deserve to know you are)
I should've never treated you ugly, (you are) you are a beautiful soul

[Outro]
Better... not together... I know
But to me... you'll always be... ohhh, a beautiful soul
