[Verse 1]
The stars have aligned
Not in a way that I'd like
Delusional state of my mind
Was there something there that night
Some sort of illness I'm sure
With symptoms that lead to no cure
I'm wrapped 'round this finger of yours
And you wouldn't even know it, but I think
We, we could be something
I know that this could hurt
That's how I know it's worth it

[Chorus]
But I've been losing sleep
While you've been haunting me
More than just a silly dream
You're in front of me
I won't let you out my sight
Because I would rather die
Than to watch you hold another lover's hand
How can I fool myself time and time again?
I'm falling for a friend

[Bridge]
No, mm
Falling for a friend
Falling for ya
[Verse 2]
What if we met again?
And said all the right things from the start?
What if you tripped and fell and landed in my arms?
Would you still love me the same?
So I'm not the one to blame if we fall apart
Due to a change of heart

[Chorus]
'Cause I've been losing sleep
While you've been haunting me
More than just a silly dream
You're in front of me
I won't let you out my sight
Because I would rather die
Than to watch you hold another lover's hand
How can I fool myself time and time again?
I'm falling for a—
I'm falling for a friend

[Outro]
Ooh, a friend
A friend
For a friend
