We do almost everything that lovers do,
and that's why it's hard just to be friends with you.
Everytime your heart is broken by the fool,
I want you to know that it hurts me too.

It's hard to wipe your tears away.
Knowing that you should be with me.
Now tell me why..

Chorus:
Why, why are we still friends,
when everything says we should be more than we are?
and tell me why,
everytime I find someone that I like,
we always end up just being friends.

I would hate for you to find somebody new,
Who you really love, cause it would mean losing you.
But am I a fool girl not to see,
if I'm always scared I'll lose you anyway.
Somehow somewhere I've got to choose.
No matter if it's win or lose.
Now tell me why..

(Chorus)

I don't wanna be like your brother,
I don't wanna be your best friend.
I only wanna be your lover.
When will this end?
If i told you that I want to be in your life,
then you could be the woman in mine.
Now tell me

(Chorus x2)
