Send "Just Friends" Ringtone to Cell

hey, what did you think i'd say?
you're everything that i ever wanted
and this kind of thing doesn't just come around
every time you go looking for it

i don't wanna be just friends, no
i'll never fake it or pretend
and i don't want another girl
cause you're the only one i love..

i don't wanna be just friends
that's something i can't understand
i don't wanna be just friends
not now, not ever
those two words are bullets in my chest
"just friends"

hey what did you think i'd do?
it felt so good waking up beside you
and the way you kiss, so delicate
doesn't come around and i'm always gonna miss it.

i don't wanna be just friends, no
i'll never fake it or pretend
and i don't want another girl
cause you're the only one i love..

CHORUS

and it's never gonna be the same again
my love....

    My Interpretation:I feel like the lyrics are much too romantically reminiscent ("it felt so good waking up beside you"/"the way that you kiss") to necessarily be about "the friend zone" or unrequited love. I think it's about a break-up. Like, they were together and happy but she now wants to just be friends, but he's still in love with her ("And it's never going to be the same, again…")

    General Comment:This songs can be about a person who's sick and tired of being in the friend zone. They may know it is a mistake to tell their friend how they feel and risk ending their friendship but he or she can't help it. The thought of love is already out there and they desperately want to know how the other one feels. Hence the ending message "and it's never gonna be the same again. my love.... "

    General Comment:This song reminds me of my best guy friend. We hooked up to get rid of feelings for eacherother, It was spose to be a one time thing, And It happened twice, then I realized how much he ment to me now we arn't as close. And its hard, but this song reminds me of him.

    My Interpretation:I'm thinking that he's talking to a girl that, has probably kissed him, is afraid to commit to anything. and he's telling her that he can't go back in time and erase the kiss because she means more than alot to him.

    General Comment:I think this perfectly sums up the heartbreaking feeling of loving someone and having them not return the favor...at least in the way you'd prefer (romantically.) I really like this song- it's soo pretty.
