We laugh at jokes we’ve told before
You leave your shoes outside my door
It’s easy when we’re side by side
But hard when I’ve got truth to hide
You talk about your latest crush
And I just smile and nod too much
I say I’m fine, like every time
But it gets harder every line
I keep my heart behind the glass
But lately it's too big to pass
I’m falling slow, like autumn leaves
You don’t know what you do to me
It’s soft, it’s quiet, it pretends
But I’m wanting more than just “friends”
I try to hold it deep inside
But it keeps showing in my eyes
You’re close, but I’m at the edge
Of saying what I’ve never said
Your hoodie’s hanging in my room
Your laugh still lingers like perfume
We talk till 2AM again
And I forget we’re not more than friends
I wish you’d see between my words
But maybe that’s too much it hurts
I’m falling slow, like autumn leaves
You don’t know what you do to me
It’s soft, it’s quiet, it pretends
But I’m wanting more than just “friends”
I try to hold it deep inside
But it keeps showing in my eyes
You’re close, but I’m at the edge
Of saying what I’ve never said
Maybe I’ll lose you if I try
But maybe I’ll break if I keep this lie
Some loves never get their name
But mine’s been yours since the day you came
I’m falling slow, but it feels fast
This secret wasn’t meant to last
It’s soft, it’s real, it never ends
I don’t just want to be your friend
So if you ever feel it too
Know my heart’s been yours with you
You’re close… and I’m not pretending
I think of us… more than just friends
