Silent Love in Friendship

Oh, we’re just friends, that’s how it goes,

But every time you smile, it cuts me in close.

Every glance you give, every laugh we share,

I’m holding on tight, still pretending I care.

You tell me your dreams, your heart’s little signs,

While I’m falling deeper, losing track of the lines.

The way that you shine, the way that you move,

But I’m just your buddy, can’t say what I feel, what a cruel groove.

Late night confessions, when the world’s fast asleep,

I hold in the truth, it’s a river so deep.

You’re lost in his heart, while I fade to the back,

Can’t change your mind, but I’m still on this track.

Oh, I wish I could tell you how my heart’s on fire,

Watching you fall, just amplifies the desire.

Loving a friend, oh what a tangled mess,

I’m still by your side, but it's tearing me, I confess.

You laugh at his jokes, light dances in your eyes,

As I play the part, hiding all of my sighs.

You don’t ever see me in this silent ache,

Your joy makes me sweet while it’s breaking my heart awake.

Late night confessions, when the world’s fast asleep,

I hold in the truth, it’s a river so deep.

You’re lost in his heart, while I fade to the back,

Can’t change your mind, but I’m still on this track.

Oh, I wish I could tell you how my heart’s on fire,

Watching you fall, just amplifies the desire.

Loving a friend, oh what a tangled mess,

I’m still by your side, but it's tearing me, I confess.

Caught in this cycle, a bittersweet role,

You don’t see my battle, it’s taking its toll.

Every glance at happiness, a wound in disguise,

I’m a prisoner to charm, lost in your eyes.

Oh, I wish I could tell you how my heart’s on fire,

Watching you fall, just amplifies the desire.

Loving a friend, oh what a tangled mess,

I’m still by your side, but it's tearing me, I confess.

So here we remain, in this friend zone dance,

While I hold my heart, in a secret romance.

You’ll find your love, it’s a sight bittersweet,

But I’ll carry my love, beneath my heartbeat.
