Unrequited Melodies: Navigating the Complexities of Friendship and Desire
Lyrics
You said you needed me,
You expressed a need for my presence,
but I don't need you,
I do not reciprocate that need for you,
You said you wanted me,
You communicated a desire to have me,
but I dont want you,
But I do not share that desire for you,
just be my friend yeah yeah,
Emphasis on the preference for a platonic friendship,
just be my friend yeah yeah,
-just be my friend yeah yeah,
-just be my friend
-You said you're the one for me,
You claimed to be the ideal partner for me,
But I don't think so,
I doubt the validity of that claim,
You said you'd wait for me,
You promised to wait for my presence,
But I cant wait for you
I am not willing to wait for you,
just be my friend yeah yeah,
Reiteration of the preference for a purely friendly relationship,
just be my friend yeah yeah,
-just be my friend yeah yeah,
-just be my friend
-If I really mattered to you,
If I held significant importance to you,
you would get a pen and some paper,
You would express your feelings through creative means,
you would write me a poem, or paint me a picture,
-maybe make up a song or write me a letter,
-but you're just a friend
Reaffirmation of the platonic nature of the relationship,
You're just a friend
-You said you wanted me,
Revisiting the earlier contradiction in desires expressed by the other person,
You said
