Just friends first

I'm lying down and cry in my pillow

Asking God, "What can I do?"

I'm lying down and cry in my pillow

Asking God, "Why am I so blue?"

My crush, he won't commit now

And I feel like this is it now

'Cause he just wants to be friends first

I realize I should've known better

Than thinking that our love would last

I realize I should've known better

I fell in love too hard, too fast

This always happens to me

Looking for my future groom-y
But he just wants to be friends first

I'm the kind of girl who needs someone

To kiss and wipe my tears away

I'm the kind of girl who needs someone

To love and hold and make me okay

He seemed like Mr. Perfect

But we simply couldn't work it

So we're just gonna be friends first

Some time goes by and now I understand
I can be an independent girl
Some time goes by and now I understand
It's not like it's the end of the world

You're still an awesome fella

Maybe feelings could develop
But we'll stick to being just friends first.

I'm single and I'm having a good time

No longer do I feel so blue

I'm single and I'm having a good time

I've finally gotten over you

We may not be together
But we'll both find someone better

And it's thanks to being just friends first.
