Remind me.
You are just my friend
Nothing more, Nothing less
No relationship to mend
All has been confessed
For although I want you
I can't have you
But you have me
And yet you don't want me.
For you are just my friend
So in the mundane when I see you
And my heart knows not what to do
Forgive my foolish pretense
That I have had with me ever since
Becoming your friend
I know God's will is perfect
Yet I've seen you in my dreams
Truth, I know I've heard it
And it frightens me it seems
Can I escape my thinking
Can I escape my heart
Who's emotions am I drinking
When I scribble down this art
And I am alone and steady
And I know the words to say
My emotions they are ready
To start each and every day
And then I see you
And I am surrounded and shaky
And I don't know what to do
My once secure emotions are flaky
The past and present I rue
I'll trust in God for He is good
But will this ever end
I don't know if it really could
Maybe numbness will began
I don't not if it really should
For all along we've been but friends
Are we as strong as hardened wood
Or can we truly bend?
