Did you see me last night
I was there in the dark
I saw her look at you, the way i used to
When i still had your heart.
I watched you take her hand
There was love in your eyes
I remember when you looked at me that way too
Before we said good-bye
I don`t want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
I don`t think i can pretend
That you mean nothing to me
It`s hard enough to say good-bye
Even when you know it`s over
I don`t want to be your friend
I want to be your lover and when i think i`ve had enough
And i just can`t stand the pain
I reminisce about the way it felt
To have you every day
You know that every time i hear your voice
I still get a thrill
And there`s nothing i can do about it
Am i gone from your thoughts, forgotten somehow
When you be there with her
Does my memory stir, any part of you now
I know that i should concede, face the truth and all that
I know i should realize i`m not a part of your life anymore,
But i can`t
I don`t want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
I don`t think i can pretend
That you mean nothing to me
It`s hard enough to say good-bye
Even when you know it`s over
I don`t want to be your friend
I want to be your lover
