How To Be A Friend

She said she really liked me
Yeah she said a whole bunch
But even when she said it
Well I had a bad hunch
I moved a little closer
thinkin’ what would she say?
She looked at me so kindly
But then pushed me away

She said to me you really are
A very good friend
I always want us both to
Always be such good friends
I gave a little smile and told her
Well that’s ok
But I was really hurtin’
But then what could I say

How could I now go to the party?
How could I now hang with her friends?
Someone else will want her
Someone else would hold her
Someone else would be with her
The way I want to be with her

How can I pretend I’m not caring?
How can I pretend if she’s sharing
A private little laugh
And a quiet little touch
When I want her oh so much?

How to be a friend
when you want to be her lover
Yeah how to be a friend
when you really -really want more
Yeah how to be a friend
when you want – want to be her lover
How to be a friend
When you desperately want more

She said she really liked me
Yeah yeah yeah ….

What am I to do going forward?
What am I to do feeling awkward?
Acting like it’s easy
Acting like I’m breezy?
With those words she said to me?

Can anybody tell me?
Someone got an answer?
Can someone tell me please?
