I Don't Want To Be Your Friend Lyrics

Did you see me last night?
I was there in the dark
I saw her look at you the way I used to do
When I still had your heart
I watched you take her hand
There was love in your eyes
I remeber when you looked at me that way too
Before we said goodbye

I don't want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
I don't think I can pretend that you mean nothing to me
It's hard enough to say goodbye
Even when you know it's over
I don't want to be your friend
I want to be your lover

Am I gone from your thoughts
Forgotten somehow?
When you lie there with her
Does my memory stir any part of you now?
I know that I should concede
Face the truth and all that
I know I should realize I'm not part of your life anymore
But I can't

Cause I don't want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
I don't think I can pretend that you mean nothing to me
It's hard enough to say goodbye
Even when you know it's over
I don't want to be your friend
I want to be your lover

And when I think I've had enough
And I just can't stand the pain
I reminisce about the way it felt to have you every day
You know that every time I hear your voice
I still get a thrill
And there's nothing I can do about it

I don't want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
I don't think I can pretend that you mean nothing to me
It's hard enough to say goodbye
Even when you know it's over
I don't want to be your friend
I want to be your lover
I don't want to be your friend
I want to be your lover
I don't want to be your friend
I want to be your.....oooh oooh....
