Can't keep a friend a friend no more



Why can't we just be friends?
Every friendship eventually ends

Why can't we be more then friends?
We found attraction that energized our passion
With every expression exceeding expectation

Why can't we just be friends?
Sharing our thoughts and virtual kisses
Escalate the needs to quench our thirst with luscious lips

Why can't we be more then just friends?
Friendship ended some time ago
When we found ourselves in each other's hands

Let's share ourselves with each other
So this friendship never ends
