Best Friends

From the moment I laid eyes on you, my heart skipped a beat You were the girl of my dreams, so sweet and so kind (yeah, yeah) I thought that being your best friend was the way to your heart But little did I know, it tore mine apart [Verse 2] We laughed, we cried, we shared everything together But deep inside, I was hoping for something more (oh no, oh no) You'd talk about guys, and I'd pretend not to care But every word felt like a knife, it just wasn't fair [Chorus] We were best friends, yeah, that's what we said But in my heart, I wanted so much more instead I couldn't find the words, couldn't take the chance Now you're with my best friend, and I'm left in a trance [Verse 3] Through late-night talks and walks under the stars I tried to hide my feelings, bury them in scars But every time you smiled, my heart would ache Knowing you were with him was more than I could take [Verse 4] I wish I could turn back time and speak my mind Tell you how I feel, leave no truth behind But fear held me captive, locked inside my shell Now I'm stuck in this silence, my heart in a cell [Chorus] We were best friends, yeah, that's what we said But in my heart, I wanted so much more instead I couldn't find the words, couldn't take the chance Now you're with my best friend, and I'm left in a trance [Chorus] We were best friends, yeah, that's what we said But in my heart, I wanted so much more instead I couldn't find the words, couldn't take the chance Now you're with my best friend, and I'm left in a trance [Bridge] I watch from the sidelines as you two dance Every step you take feels like a stab, a lance I smile through the pain, hiding my despair But inside, I'm screaming, "It's just not fair" [Verse 5] I'll pretend to be happy, put on a brave face But inside I'm drowning in this endless space I'll hold onto memories, both bitter and sweet While silently praying for a chance to repeat [Verse 5] I'll pretend to be happy, put on a brave face But inside I'm drowning in this endless space I'll hold onto memories, both bitter and sweet While silently praying for a chance to repeat [Outro] So here I am, alone with my regrets Watching you both, my heart still in debt Maybe someday I'll find the courage to say But for now, I'll just keep pretending everything's okay
