Lyrics
[Verse 1 - Male]
We’ve been sharing this booth every Friday night
Talking 'bout the weather and the town hall light
You got a ring on your hand, I got a band on mine
We say we're just friends, but we're crossing the line
[Verse 2 - Female]
You order my drink before I say a word
We laugh at the secrets that nobody heard
I go home to a house where the quiet feels deep
Holding onto thoughts that I shouldn't keep
[Chorus - Both]
And we don't say a word, no, we keep it in the dark
Scared of what would happen if we kindled this spark
It's a heavy kind of secret, it's a dangerous flame
Too much left to lose if we say it by name
Yeah, we hide what we feel, and we play our part
Two best friends with a broken heart
[Verse 3 - Male]
I saw you look away when he held your hand
I looked at the floor 'cause I understand
We built these lives, we drew these lines
Now we're caught in the middle of a bad design
[Chorus - Both]
And we don't say a word, no, we keep it in the dark
Scared of what would happen if we kindled this spark
It's a heavy kind of secret, it's a dangerous flame
Too much left to lose if we say it by name
Yeah, we hide what we feel, and we play our part
Two best friends with a broken heart
[Bridge - Female & Male]
[Female] What if we told the truth tonight?
[Male] What if it tore down everything in sight?
[Female] So we pour another drink and pretend it's fine
[Male] Just two old friends keeping secrets in line
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus - Both]
And we don't say a word, no, we keep it in the dark
Scared of what would happen if we kindled this spark
It's a heavy kind of secret, it's a dangerous flame
Too much left to lose if we say it by name
Yeah, we hide what we feel, and we play our part
Two best friends with a broken heart
[Outro - Female & Male]
[Male] See you next Friday night...
[Female] Yeah, see you then...
[Both] Just two best friends...
