Could you please come a little closer
Cuz I'm holding on to the edge
And this feeling is a bit too familiar
And all the times that you run from me
Deep inside of yourself
Could you take my hand and show me the way
To heal every pain that you cry over
I only wanna be the best of friends to you
I only wanna be the last thing that you see
When you drift off to sleep
I wanna be every reason for every smile that crosses your face
And the one to erase every tear that clouds your eyes
I only wanna be the love you can never forget
I see you standing broken and alone
And I don't know how to show you
That nothing you could do would ever change you for me
I really miss the way that we laughed
And the smiles I see in all of our photographs
But most of all I miss the look
That you had in your eyes when we promised forever
I only wanna be the best of friends to you
I only wanna be the last thing that you see
When you drift off to sleep
I wanna be every reason for every smile that crosses your face
And the one to erase every tear that clouds your eyes
I only wanna be the love you can never forget
But I know that things change and these days
Every little thing is a reminder
Of everything that I did to destroy you
In every silent way that I couldn't see
So I'm standing right here hangin on
Not knowin if I should walk away or keep tryin the way that I always do
I really miss you but I can't face the person I've changed you into
Is there anything that I could possibly do
To bring you back to me
I wanted to be the best of friends to you
I wanted to be the last thing that you saw
When you drifted off to sleep
I wanted to be every reason for every smile that crossed your face
And the one to erase every tear that clouded your eyes
I couldn't quite make it I caused more pain than I wanted to
So as I'm walking away don't blame it on yourself
I can be the love you will never forget
