a place i don't want to escape
we might have something that might never end.
Chorus 1 :

will you let me love you like i want to

if our friendship turn into love
what if our friendship turn into love
Verse 2:
you've been hiding how you feel about me
eventhough you won't say a word or two

Verse 1:
here i am wondering what to do
with these circles going round in my head
i don't have you all to myself
like i did that very night
when you met me
Verse 2:
i keep on thinking of you
and all the nice things you said
but i guess you could never tell
i had you on my mind
it was done so easily.
Chorus:
I didn't wanna let you go
looking into your eyes
telling me how you felt
and all that you wanted to say
i didn't wanna be alone
you're not by my side
so you can see for yourself
if you love me don't go away
if you love me don't go away.
Verse 3:
i try to call you on the phone
but you won't ever answer
what's keeping you from letting me hear your voice
if i'm the only one for you
when you walked into my home
you think i'd be so quick to surrender
but i'm no longer your choice
our dreams stop coming true
our dreams stop coming true
(chorus 2x's)
Verse 4:
I looked all over town for you
but you were no where to be found
cause you're out there loving someone else
after all that we've been through
i do miss having you around
but my heart is still sitting on that dirty shelf.
sitting on that dirty shelf
(chorus)
Verse 5:
so now you see me with someone new
all of a sudden you want me back
after you were so quick to leave me
that's just something i can't do
after you made me a part of your past
and now you need me so desperately.

you said I'd be your one and only.
(chorus 1)
Chorus 2:
Don't stop what you do

Verse 1:
So many nights ago

thinking about how we used to be
believing we were meant for eachother
everything was once so strong
it happened in the nick of time
i thought i knew you so well
now you say it's already done.

I can't believe you're letting me go
after all we did to get what we gain
knowing what i was looking for

why should i take you back
if you won't be there
no way oh no i won't take you back
no way oh no i won't take you back .

the way you really feel
thinking i'm gonna fall for your words
