Friend Zone
Gabz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Boys walks by, looking so fly
Thinking of him like all of the time
Nothing in common, but I don't mind
He could never do wrong with those eyes
Don't think I've ever liked a guy much more
Apart from last week and the week before
But oh well, who cares, that was back then
I'll just pretend, I never liked them
But who's that girl over there?
He's trying so hard not to stare
He introduces me to her
His girlfriend, his girlfriend, his girlfriend
Now I'm stuck in the friend zone again
And the smile on my face is pretend
Cause I'm stuck in the friend zone again
I just wish that you'd like me like you like her
Stuck in the friend zone again
And the smile on my face is pretend
Cause I'm stuck in the friend zone
again
I just wish that you'd like me like you like her
Sing it
Wish that you'd like me like you like her
Look at this guy, eyes so green
It's getting pretty serious, liked this guy for a week
Plays the guitar, he can serenade me
Think that this could work cause we share the same dreams
Don't think I've ever liked a guy much more
Apart from last week and the week before
But oh well, who cares, that was back then
I'll just pretend, I never liked them
But who's that girl over there?
He's trying so hard not to stare
He introduces me to her
His girlfriend, his girlfriend, his girlfriend

Now I'm stuck in the friend zone again
And the smile on my face is pretend
Cause I'm stuck in the friend zone again
I just wish that you'd like me like you like her
Stuck in the friend zone again
And the smile on my face is pretend
Cause I'm stuck in the friend zone again
I just wish that you'd like me like you like her
Sing it
Wish that you'd like me like you like her
Stuck in the friend zone all alone
Wondering why I do this
I must admit, fell too quick
Found you too hard to resist
My head fell before my heart could break the fall
Now I'm home by myself, waiting for your call
Stuck in the friend zone all alone
Wondering why I do this
I must admit, fell too quick
Found you too hard to resist
I'm not over the moon, be over you soon
By tomorrow, be thinking 'bout somebody new
Now I'm stuck in the friend zone again
And the smile on my face is pretend
Cause I'm stuck in the friend zone again
I just wish that you'd like me like you like her
Friend zone again
And the smile on my face is pretend
Cause I'm stuck in the friend zone again
I just wish that you'd like me like you like her
Stuck in the friend zone again
And the smile on my face is pretend
Cause I'm stuck in the friend zone again
I just wish that you'd like me like you like her
Stuck in the friend zone




Wish that you'd like me like you like her
Stuck in the friend zone
