Only Meant to be Friends

This is the first song I've wrote... the others I would only think as poetry, but not entirely lyrics.


From the first day we met,
I look into those eyes.
And they take away my breath each and every time.
I always thought and wondered. "why, why, why?"
At this time.
I thought I was close, but now I know
I surely was not.
Hey, isn't that just so easy to see?
I really gave my all for nothing.
Now I hope you're truly happy with her.

Please don't take her hand.
'Cause it should be me right next to you.
Now I ask why we even met.
If we didn't then I would never be so sad.
Every day and every night with you on my mind.
But I start to only see her,
the one you truly love.

I must be good at hiding my real feelings.
You've always talked just like a friend.
If you knew how I really felt, I wonder
what might happen then,
but I don't want to ruin anything and take that chance.
Counting your steps as you walk towards me,
but you ought to know that just a smile and wave
is more than enough for me.

- Pauline Pau
