Friend Crush
Friends Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Freezing Fridays fleeing from me
I've seen you around, I don't know what you think of me
The colors in the air never scared you like they should
I saw it in your face so I told you and you understood

I wanna be your friend
I wanna ask your advice on a weekday
I wanna plan something nice for the weekend
I wanna be your friend
ooh, wanna ask your advice on a weekday
I wanna plan something nice for the weekend

Sustained means some Sunday so are we
People speak all week, I just forgot what they told me
The stories in your hair that you carry are it for me
I'd be lying if I said that I didn't want to lay in it

I wanna be your friend
I wanna ask your advice on a weekday
I wanna plan something nice for the weekend
I wanna be your friend
ooh, wanna ask your advice on a weekday
I wanna plan something nice for the weekend

The stories in your hair I've been carrying all around
I'd be lying if I said that I didn't wanna hear 'em now
The stories in your hair I've been carrying all around
Well I'd be lying if I said that I didn't wanna tear it out

I wanna be your friend
I wanna ask your advice on a weekday
I wanna plan something nice for the weekend
I wanna be your friend




ooh, wanna stay at your side on a weekday
I wanna see inside your eyes on a weekend

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Friend Crush by Friends seem to describe someone who is attracted to someone but not in a romantic way, but rather a platonic way. The person sees the other person as potentially becoming friends, but is hesitant to approach them. The first two lines describe how the singer is trying to avoid running into the person they are interested in, perhaps because they are unsure of how the other person feels about them. The singer is stuck in their own uncertainty and does not know what the other person thinks of them.


The second verse of the song has a similar theme, with the singer saying that they have forgotten what other people are saying because they are so captivated by this other person. They seem to be fascinated with the other person's stories and want to hear more about them. The chorus is repeated several times throughout the song, emphasizing that the singer truly wants to befriend the other person, asking for advice and making plans.


Overall, the song captures the feeling of having a "friend crush" on someone - the desire to be their friend and get to know them better.

This song is everything. How do you convey this feeling to someone without sounding like a huge weirdo?

@MaxFeken

I get it. Keep it too yourself and enjoy. Sharing music is way overrated!

@MonstarChan3

@@MaxFeken I always keep the good music to myself.

@voinescumacrea1274

I know exactly what you mean. You would convey this feeling super easy to someone whoโ€™s on the same feel without sounding like a weirdo . Itโ€™s not that hard . Look around... life is good
