Pretend Friends lyrics

I met you at some random party The kind you don't even wanna go to But you showed up with that boyish smile And made the whole thing fall apart We exchange ideas, exchange photos Exchange songs until dawn But when the conversation heats up, you change the focus Say you wanna keep it just friends, nothing more And I pretend to understand, pretend to accept Pretend my heart doesn't race When you lean your shoulder against my chest And say I'm the best friend who waits for you Say we can be friends But friends don't feel these butterflies Say we can be friends But friends don't wanna take you to bed, don't call you Say we can be friends Alright then let's be like that Friends who look at each other differently I introduce you to all my crushes You laugh, say you liked this one or that one But deep down I'm counting teeth Hoping it doesn't work out with her And when you disappear for a few days Say you were busy, handling life I pretend to believe it, that it didn't hurt But the truth is that missing you hurts Will you ever realize That what I feel doesn't fit in a friendship? That I'm only here just to see you And that this has already become a need? Say we can be friends But friends don't feel these butterflies Say we can be friends But friends don't wanna take you to bed, don't call you Say we can be friends Alright, then let's be like that Friends who look at each other differently And if one day you get tired of pretending And decide to look at me for real I'll be here, ready to fall Into your kiss, into your city Say we can be friends (Friends) But friends don't feel these butterflies (butterflies) Say we can be friends But friends don't wanna take you to bed, don't call you (Don't call you) Say we can be friends Alright, then let's be like that Friends who look at each other differently
