If You Can't Be My Lover
When it's late at night
And I'm cold inside
And I feel my soul slipping away
And I'm all alone
In an empty home
This is what I want to say

If you can't be my lover be my friend
That's what I need right now
If I can't ever hold you again
Then let me hold you now

When the light is failing
And the sky is paling
And it's been another wasted day
And darkness takes me down
with a silent sound
I wish that you could stay

If you can't be my lover be my friend
That's what I need right now
If I can't ever see you again
Then smile for me now

When the memories
Come back to me
And I can't seem to forget
And I look to you
To see me through
And wonder if it's over yet
If you can't be my lover be my friend
That's what I need right now
If I can't ever hold you again
Then just smile for me now
