Friendship Over Love

**Verse 1:** I feel happy when I'm with you, Your smile lights up my darkest days, But I didn't expect your love so true, Didn't see it coming in this way. **Pre-Chorus:** But there's a fear inside my heart, Afraid I'll tear your world apart, I can't be the one you need, Though your love is all I see. **Chorus:** Forgive me for not taking your hand, I can't lie to my own heart, I wish I could make you understand, But I'm scared we'll fall apart. Let's stay as friends, keep this forever, Our bond will never sever. **Verse 2:** You deserve more than I can give, A love that makes you truly shine, In my heart, I want you to live, But not as mine, not this time. **Pre-Chorus:** The truth is hard, it breaks my soul, But loving you, it's taking a toll, I can't be the one you see, Our friendship's all I'll ever be. **Chorus:** Forgive me for not taking your hand, I can't lie to my own heart, I wish I could make you understand, But I'm scared we'll fall apart. Let's stay as friends, keep this forever, Our bond will never sever. **Bridge:** We'll laugh and cry, just like before, But love like this, I can't explore, You're my treasure, my dear friend, A bond that time will never end. **Chorus:** Forgive me for not taking your hand, I can't lie to my own heart, I wish I could make you understand, But I'm scared we'll fall apart. Let's stay as friends, keep this forever, Our bond will never sever. **Outro:** I feel happy when I'm with you, Our friendship's pure and true, Though love is not our path to take, Forever friends, for our own sake.
