Forever, as Friends

I�ve been thinking it out, how it could be,
Yes, seeing you here, forever with me.
I�ve been thinking it out, what more I can do,
Or say, to prove my love for you.

But you�re telling me that I fail to see,
This thing that we share, so special to me,
Could never be what it seems, not at all.
And to watch myself, less I should fall.

I was looking for love, and I found it with you.
You were needing a friend, one who would be true.
You�ve been letting me see, what I really should know.
But my stubborn heart just cannot let go.

I don�t know why I say the things I do,
Like, forever, I�ll love you.  I don�t know why.
I don�t know why I can�t see between the lines.
Oh, why am I so blind?  So blind?

Now, I see that you�re right.  Was caught up in a dream.
I�ve begun to awake.  Come to face what you mean.
That in both of our hearts, we�re so willing to give,
Is a love that�s so deep, for as long as we both live,
As friends.

Friends forever, yes, destined to be.
In each other�s hearts, walking so free.
And in my heart, you�ll stay forever.
Even though we�re not together.
Forever we�ll be, as friends.
