Only a friend

You called me on the phone late last night
The rain was pouring down as you cried
And you said he had you bad
That he broke your heart like all the others did
And so you thought
You just needed to talk to a friend

**Cos only a friend
Can mend a heart
That’s torn and broken too
And only a friend
Can keep your trust
And love you just for you
But only a fool can overlook
The way I look at you
But it doesn’t really matter
After all
Cos I’m only a friend to you

I told you life’s like that and it’s ok
I know he didn’t love you that much anyway
And i say just look around though someway somehow
Someone’s waiting to be found
So just let him go
Then you will know
The one who’s loved you most
Is now that one who’s loving you back**

Would it matter?
If I told you
Just how much I long to be more to you

Cos only a friend
Can mend a heart
That’s torn and broken too
Only a friend
Can keep your trust
And love you for just being you
But only a fool can overlook
The way I look at you
But it doesn’t really matter
After all
It doesn't really matter
After all
No, it doesn't really matter
After all

Cos I’m only a friend
That’s all I am
I’m only a friend
