essess feat. Brendan Reilly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look at what you've done to me
Since you cut off from your sweet sweet love
I'm so addicted to your touch
You are now just making me crazy
And I heard you still think about me
But there's no way I can do
A strictly friendship life with you
Now I wish I never met you
But it's so hard to forget you
And I wish I never
Fell so deep in love with you
And now there ain't no we can be friends
(can be friends)
(can be friends)
(can be friends)
I fell in love with you
You didn't wanna kick it
And now everythings different
I lost it all because of love
I fell in love with you
You didn't wanna kick it
And now everythings different
I lost it all because of love
I fell in love with you
You didn't wanna kick it
And now everythings different
I lost it all because I fell in love
(Naaa na na na na na na na naaa, no no noo)
(Naaaa na na, hey)
There's no telling what we could've been now
(Naaa na na na na na na na naaa, no no noo)
(Naaaa na na, hey)
There's no telling what we could've been now
I fell in love with you
You didn't wanna kick it
And now everythings different
I lost it all because of love
I fell in love with you
You didn't wanna kick it
And now everythings different
I lost it all because of love
I fell in love with you
You didn't wanna kick it
And now everythings different
I lost it all because of love
I fell in love with you
You didn't wanna kick it
And now everythings different
I lost it all because of love
I fell in love with you
You didn't wanna kick it
And now everythings different
I lost it all because I fell in love
(Naaa na na na na na na na naaa, no no noo)
(Naaaa na na, hey)
There's no telling what we could've been now
(Naaa na na na na na na na naaa, nooo no no)
(Naaaa na na, hey)
There's no telling what we could've been now
Mmmm I wish I never met you
Wish I could forget you
I lost it all
Cause I fell in love
Lost my heart
Cause I fell for you




Ooh ooh
(end)

The lyrics of "Just Friends" by Essess feature Brendan Reilly revolve around the pain and regret caused by falling in love with someone who only wants to be friends. The singer is addicted to the touch of the person they fell in love with, which is causing them to go crazy.

They feel that they lost everything because of love, and there's no telling what things could've been now.
