Just A Friend to Evie

Evie, oh Evie, won't you see?

Got this feeling, why can't it be?

When I see you smiling, the world starts to shine,

But you look right past me, like I'm just fine.

We share our laughter, but I want so much more,

Each moment we chat opens up a door.

But when you talk about that guy,

You don't see the spark in my eyes,

I wanna show you, wanna be near,

But I’m just the friend who’s always here.

Oh Evie, I just wish you could see,

You're the dream that I hold so close to me.

If you looked just a little closer, you'll find,

The love that’s hiding in this heart of mine.

Late night talks and coffee cups,

You speak about love, but never us.

I paint my heart in the words I share,

But you just smile, like I’m not there.

What can I do to make you see,

I’m not just a friend, I'm meant to be,

The one who holds you through every fall,

But for now, it feels like you don’t know at all.

Oh Evie, I just wish you could see,

You're the dream that I hold so close to me.

If you looked just a little closer, you'll find,

The love that’s hiding in this heart of mine.

I’ll be patient, wait till the day,

When you wake up and say my name.

But until then, I'll be your friend,

Hoping someday, this love will never end.

Oh Evie, I just wish you could see,

You're the dream that I hold so close to me.

If you looked just a little closer, you'll find,

The love that’s hiding in this heart of mine.

So Evie, oh Evie, won't you hear my call,

I'm here waiting, just hoping you'd fall.
