Lyrics

I don’t wanna be just friends with you
I feel something else inside
I don’t wanna be just friends with you
This is something I can’t hide

Cause when I look inside your eyes
I feel like I am suddenly in outer space
The swirling starry galaxies are floating by
And maybe we are nebula
Rainbow colored interstellar clouds
Meeting for a moment in curved space time
Which might explain why
I felt a little big bang in my chest
When we interlaced fingers
Doing acro yoga on the beach the first day that we met

I don’t wanna be just friends with you
I feel somethin’ else inside
I don’t wanna be just friends with you
Could we just give this a try?

Cause when we rode our bicycle out to the marina
Watched the Japanese lantern float up into the sky
I noticed every little time our shoulders touched
Felt the joy of life so much
With all those people and the fireworks happening outside
Inside lavender ice cream
I lay awake all night melting and basking
In those yummy sensations
Don’t need no libations to get drunk as a kite with you

I don’t wanna be just friends with you
Boy I’m happy to go slow
Do you wanna be just friends with me?
Wanna let this whole thing go

Well if that’s what’s best for you
Then that’s what I want too
And if you’d rather we don’t speak
I’ll leave you be week after week
And just so you know
I’m incredibly thankful

That we got to be friends for a while
What a special gift it’s been, mm
That we got to be friends for a while
In the heart this never ends
