Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

you and i have been drivin for miles now
it aint no thing we been friends for a awhile now
i love how we kick it and we do it all the time
and i love every minute livit like we both were dyin now
we both said that wed stay friends forever
and everyone asks me when well ever get together
and what i say back
is that its not like that

Id rather be your friend
than your nothin at all
thats why i cant tell you
how i really feel
i dont wanna risk it all
my thoughts
will remain thoughts

I believe we can be the epitome
of two in love i believe in possibilities
and were just best friends but the chemistry says to me
that were in love and meant to be
and you might feel the same or the opposite
or you might feel a little or a lot of it
or you might be
waiting for me

I seen you at the top and i seen you at the bottom
and it breaks my heart to hear you talk about your guys problems
so i keep my options open even though my thoughts are broken
and all these thoughts keep pokin my emotions i keep hopin
that one day ill ask you and you ll say "finally"
or maybe one day ill pass you and you wont say hi to me
or lie to me say bye to me or tell me that your vibin me
and all of these thoughts keep eatin whats inside of me
you sleep on my lap and i sleep on your bed and its no big deal to your mom and your dad
cause i stay on my side and you stay on yours
and they know were just friends they even let yo close the door
and the more that im with you the more that i wanna
go through all the drama and finally tell my momma




that i told her that i love her and i know that theres no other
after all they say that best friends make the best lovers
