Just Friends

I want to be more than just friends.
On you, my life depends.
I feel hollow, empty inside.
It would be better if I had died.

I'm thinking of you when I should be working or sleeping.
For you, I would do anything.
I would give everything for you to look at me
The way you look at her; that would make me so happy.

Ever since you left, I've been blue.
Everything I see reminds me of you.
There is an emptiness where my heart used to be.
I just wish that you could see.

You don't know how I feel, 
But maybe someday you will.
I'm too shy to let you know.
So like a fool, I have to let you go.

I love looking into your eyes of blue,
But it hurts so much, that's also true.
Because the one you're looking at is not me,
And it never will be.

I want to dance real close to you.
I want to know every inch of you.
Everything is so messed up and makes no sense.
My mind is numb, how can I be this dense?

I could never get a guy like you,
No matter what I do.
Is it bad to want you this much?
To long for your touch?

I feel like I'm drowning, I can't catch my breath.
The only release would have to be death.
It kills me that I may never see you again.
Thinking of you is wonderful but also causes me pain.

I know we will never be together, it's not in the cards.
My life is a window, broken in shards.
Who will restore the pieces and make me complete?
Who will sweep me off my feet?

I need you to be my knight in shining armor.
This love is worth fighting for.
I want you to be mine, I want to be yours.
Leave nothing behind closed doors.

I want to give myself to you, 
Forever I would be true.
If only we could make amends,
And go beyond being just friends.
