That old Cliche

People used to ask us
If we were going out
I would tell them all the things
We used to talk about
I would say do you really think
He would say any of this
If I was the girl he liked
The one he wanted to kiss
I remember in August 05
We had a rock band
His songs left me a little unsure
I didnt understand
This girl in his songs sounded perfect
He seemed to like her a lot
Why had he never told me?
It cant have been that he forgot
The girl in his songs was so witty
And pretty and clever and nice
She made me feel so jealous
She made me consider twice
The way I felt about him
The moments that we shared
She made me wonder why I wondered
And ask myself if I cared
At the time I laughed it off
I wouldnt follow that trend
In wouldnt follow the old cliche
Of falling for my best friend
At least thats what Id tell myself
To ease the pain somewhat
Friendship couldnt last this
Although wed seen a lot
We thought we passed this obstacle
I guess we were just naive
We didnt know the power of love
And I didnt yet believe
Until I fell for the nicest boy
That I could ever choose
I guess I thought I should tell you
I though I had nothing to lose
Of course I couldve lost everything
And so I made a vow
Not to endanger our friendship again
Ive kept it up til now
But now you tell me we need to talk
Which sets off all my fears
Then you say 3 little words
Music to my ears
You say that you love me back
You say you will right my wrongs
Im still floating since I learned
That I am the girl from those songs
