We're only friends

As we are, we will stay
Friends today, tomorrow too
Nothing more, nothing new

Let me hold you close
Hold my hand in yours
Kiss your cheek, my shoulder blade
my arms around you
your breath on my neck

Giggle and deny it
when they ask if we're together
because we're not
We're only friends, you and I

And later tonight
When no ones paying attention
Or they're too drunk to care or remember
We'll sit and hold each other

Whisper in each others ears
share secrets, dreams and hopes
Lean into me, I won't let go
And we'll stay like this forever

But still,
We're only friends, you and I
