Losing a Friend

I used to fly close to the sun

Then one day I crashed

I started clipping my wings

Said walking wasn’t so bad

Even though I had a dream

To be someone’s other half

I chose to stay on my feet

I chose to stay on my feet

But then I looked up

And I saw you flying

Just like a dove

On the horizon

And despite all my baggage

All the pain I’ve been hiding

I wanna fly up to you

But my scars know better

Last night I started writing you a text

With a song that I wrote about you when we met

I was about to hit send

But I didn’t want us to end

Cause winning a lover

Ain’t worth losing a friend

So I’m keeping you close

But never too close

Keeping you close

But never too close

Keeping you close

But never too close

Cause winning a lover

Ain’t worth losing a friend

I’m just holding my breath

Don’t know what to do next

Girl I took you to prayer

But I didn’t like what He said

Said I gotta give it time yeah

Know I gotta let it go

Gotta trust in the Provider

Embracing being on my own

It’s so easy to say that

But it’s harder to do

Girl I hit replay

On that night out with you

With you I was home, home, home

Wish time could’ve froze, froze, oh

Wanted to say something

But girl I know better

Last night I started writing you a text

With a song that I wrote about you when we met

I was about to hit send

But I didn’t want us to end

Cause winning a lover

Ain’t worth losing a friend

So I’m keeping you close

But never too close

Keeping you close

But never too close

Keeping you close

But never too close

Cause winning a lover

Ain’t worth losing a friend

I don’t wanna be friends

I don’t wanna be friends

But girl I’ma be your friend

I don’t wanna be friends

I don’t wanna be friends

But girl I’ma be your friend

I don’t feel nothing

You don’t feel nothing

Girl can we please pretend

Hearts have been frozen

Bridges were broken

Gotta be me again

Last night I thought about taking a shot

Confessing it all to you from the heart

Girl I would tell you the truth

But what would you do if you knew

That’s why winning your loving

Ain’t worth losing you

I’m keeping you close

But never too close

Keeping you close

But never too close

Keeping you close

But never too close

Cause winning a lover

Ain’t worth losing a friend

I don’t wanna lose you baby

(I don’t wanna be friends)

I don’t wanna lose you baby

(I don’t wanna be friends)

I don’t wanna lose you baby

(I don’t wanna be friends)

Girl it’s not worth it

Girl it’s not worth it, ohh, oh

I don’t wanna be friends

I don’t wanna be friends

I don’t wanna be friends

I don’t wanna be friends
