I'd love to tell you just how I feel
But I bite my tongue and just enjoy your company
Knowing the connection's real but so unsure if you want me around
Or if I'm just on your list of nice boys
There's so many trying to stand in my way
I'm sick of competing
It's not my style to beg
I hang myself out there everyday

I set myself of every time
Just to get knocked down
Over and over
Figures I'd learn by now
That it's all in my head
And I'm just a good friend to you
But I see you so differently
I wish you would find comfort in me

As the night fades away into celebration
We're getting comfortable
I almost taste you as you're pulling the weight out
I'm not sleeping
I put my hands to keys
It's the easiest thing to relate when inspired to paint
A desire to create a world I see
Perhaps it's perfect to me
It doesn't scare you to say
You just don't see me that way

I set myself of every time
Just to get knocked down
Over and over
Figures I'd learn by now
That it's all in my head
And I'm just a good friend to you
But I see you so differently

I set myself of every time
Just to get knocked down
Over and over
Figures I'd learn by now
That it's all in my head
And I'm just a good friend to you
But I see you so differently
I wish you would find comfort in me
