Only a Friend

You called me on the phone late last night
 The rain was pouring down as you cried
 You said he hurt you bad and that he broke your heart
 Like all the others did, and so you thought
 You just needed to talk to your friend
 'Cause only a friend can mend a heart that's torn and broke in two
 Only a friend can keep your trust and love you just for you for just being you
 Only a fool can overlook the way I look at you
 But it doesn't really matter, after all, 'cause I'm only a friend to you (oh)
 I told you life's like that and it's okay (it's okay)
 I know he didn't love you that much anyway (anyway)
 And I say, "Just look around, who knows someway, somehow
 Someone's waiting to be found, so just let him go (let him go)
 Then you will know, the one who's loved you most (the one who's loved you most)
 Is now the one who's loving you back"
 'Cause only a friend can mend a heart that's torn and broke in two
 Only a friend can keep your trust and love you just for you
 And only a fool can overlook the way I look at you
 But it doesn't really matter, after all, 'cause I'm only a friend to you
 Would it matter (would it matter) if I tell you? (if I tell you)
 Just how much I long to be more (be more) to you
 'Cause only a friend can mend a heart that's torn and broke in two
 Only a friend can keep your trust and love you just for just being you
 And only a fool can overlook he way I look at you
 But it doesn't really matter, after all (it doesn't really matter)
 It doesn't really matter, after all (it doesn't really matter)
 It doesn't really matter, after all, 'cause I'm only a friend to you
 That's all that I am, I'm only a friend, ooh
