In our childhoods days
  together we would play
  people said we were inseparable
  
  Like a brother then
  my protective friend
  he would always take good care of me
  
  Friends that's what we are just
  friends no more or less oh
  here we are sharing so much fun
  friends why can't he see that I want him
  to be more than my friend
  
  Years have come and gone
  still our friendship's strong
  now he's more than just the boy next door
  
  I'm in love with him
  guess I'ev always been
  he doesn't know he's all I'm living for
  
  Friends that's all we are just
  friends so near yet so far from love
  and oh the joy that he can bring
  friends why can't he see that I want him
  to be more than my friend
  
  I'd like to tell him that I need him bad
  but I'm afraid if I do I might lose
  the only friend that I have
  
  Friends that's all we are just
  friends so near yet so far from love and thus
  we'll always remain friends
  friends why can't he see that I want us
  to be more than just friends
