Just Friends Lyrics

When you stare from across the room
I can't tell if you're looking at me
Or just looking through
The others celebrate the end of the work week
But it's Tuesday for me and you
To say that we're just friends
Would never do us justice
We're a couple of gems
Swept into the dust bin

When you pay your respect to the past
I can't tell if it's a nervous laugh
When you think we could made it last
The others frail and they cut off their tails
The dreams dance to death in their glass
We're more than just dreamers
When we ourselves believe it
We have the rest of our lives
Just gotta reach out and steal it
You're sending me up the river
I can't seem to remember
That you said you just needed a friend
Just a friend

When you speak, are holding back?
It's all I've asked between now and the past
I'd love to hear you answer that
They'll turn out the lights
And we'll say our goodnight
Though we're not good enough to last
While I'm tossing and turning baby
Is our love burning?
Have we laid it to rest?

Are we really just friends?
Oh are we really just friends?
