Casual Lover

I'm not him and you're not her

The past couple years have been a blur

Kinda glad you never knew me then

If you did, I fear we wouldn't be friends

And I'm still hurting over someone else

Yeah, you got your issues yourself

We touching, kissing, hoping it would help

But I could only wish you well

We don't have to be together

To do all the things that couples do

Just take away the I love yous

Could you be my casual lover

When I need somebody more than a friend

Not in love but we can pretend

Yeah

Be my casual lover, casual lover

My casual lover

All the fun and none of the pain

All the sun and none of the rain

Everything about this to me is making sense

Proofs in the pudding, yeah, that sugar's evident

Is this more just than a one night affair

Do you want me to get out of your hair

With a gentle smile you said no

But if you need to go, then go

We don't have to be together

To do all the things that couples do

Just take away the I love yous

Could you be my casual lover

When I need somebody more than a friend

Not in love but we can pretend

Yeah

Be my casual lover, casual lover

My casual lover

Casual love is just love without all the casualties

We can lie to ourselves but in reality

What we're looking for is somewhere in between

And I ain't tryna say that I want commitment free, 'cause

Waking up in someone else's bed ain't good for me

I don't wanna teach a stranger how to love me

I'm sorry I can't let you closer, but

I'm right there, if you need a shoulder

We don't have to be together

To do all the things that couples do

Just take away the I love yous

Could you be my casual lover

When I need somebody more than a friend

Not in love but we can pretend

Yeah

Be my casual lover, casual lover

Casual lover
