Driving late, along the riverside

Listen close, while you spill your heart

I’ll say again and again, he ain’t worth your time

I know your love is out there, he’ll treat you right

Holding hands, during the horror flick

Drive in’s packed, but all I see is you

Of course, just as friends, we share a blanket

We’ll help each other find love, that’s just what we do

And when I felt my heart race, told myself no, it’s nothing, be calm

And yeah, we’d often embrace, but she’d never be blushing at all

We could never be, because we’ve never been

How could we risk what we’ve got, we’re the best of friends

We could never be, because we’ve never been

That’s not the script we’ve etched, we’re only friends

You know I always said I want the best for you

She said, “now you can write your own half of the script.”

I saw the photos in color, in black and white

I could see it in your eyes, the best day of your life

And when the rice was thrown and all your guests had gone

Wish I had burnt that script and we’d written our own

And when I felt my heart race, told myself no, it’s nothing, be calm

And yeah, we’d often embrace, but she’d never be blushing at all

If I had a half a lifetime, to rewrite the text I would

Cause I know deep down you feel the same way, or at least you could have
