Now I rest my head from

Such an endless dreary time

A time of hopes + happiness

That had you on my mind

Those days are gone + now it seems

As if I'll get some rest

But now + then I'll see you again

And it put's my heart to test



So when are all my problems

Going to end?

I'm understanding now that

We are only friends

To this day I'm asking why

I still think about you



As the days go on I wonder

(Will this ever end?)

I find it hard to keep control

When you're with your boyfriend

I do not mind if all I am is

Just a friend to you

But all I want to know right now

Is if you think about me too...?



So when...(repeat chorus)
