I wait for your call every night
Sustaining the friendship I don't want
You tell me all your best secrets
But I wish I was one.
You love me for my heart
But only want pretty faces
It's too bad you couldn't see your life
Had my love graced it
Saying you don't want love
âCause friendship will have fled
Is like saying you don't want life
Out of fear of what's ahead
Chorus:
I wish I was one of your secrets
Go find a different best friend
In the future love's flower could bloom
But for now we're just stuck in the stem
You give me advice
As if I don't know what to do
While in life, and in love
The only thing I need to know is how to get to you
Tell me you've told me
All those little secrets that you hide
From everyone, except for one
That you've got to hold until the time is right.
I wish I was one of your secrets
Go find a different best friend
In the future love's flower could bloom
But for now we're just stuck in the stem
Let's start from right here
What we have won't just stop
We're not ending friendship
We're building on top
When will you want me
The way I want you?
I guess for now what we have
Will just have to do.
I wish I was one of your secrets
Go find a different best friend
In the future love's flower could bloom
But for now we're just stuck in the stem
But for now we're just stuck in the stem
