boyfriend

I want you to love me like you love your boyfriend Wanna be the one you unconditionally defend But that would be too much That would be too much Sometimes I want you to leave your friends On the weekends Because I told you I was lonely But that would be too much reverence And I don't wanna be your only one That doesn't sound like too much fun Those were the backflips that I had to do Sensing the seismic shifts of your moods And watching the way your eyelashes moved Chasing the faces that meant you approved I want you to love me like you love your boyfriend Sometimes I want you to just pretend But that would get real old real fast And that fake happy I know wouldn't last And those were the same lies that I had to tell Saying it's nothing when you're going through hell And tiptoeing round on those same eggshells Bracing myself for a fast farewell I wanna be your boyfriend But not like he's your boyfriend Just tell me it will never end That's all i need to hear I don't want you to leave your friends I just want another few years with you And I want to be your boyfriend But not like he's your boyfriend I don't wanna be your reverend I wanna be your dear I don't want you to leave your friends I just want another few years With you
