Just Friends - Deer Tick

When you stare from across the room

I can’t tell if you’re looking at me

Or just looking through

The others celebrate the end of the work week

But it’s Tuesday for me and you

To say that we’re just friends would never do us justice

We’re a couple of gems

Swept into the dust bin

When you pay your respects to the past

I can’t tell if it’s a nervous laugh

And you think we could have made it last

The others frail and they cut of their tails

Their dreams dance to death in their glass

We’re more than just dreamers when we ourselves believe it

We have the rest of our lives

Just gotta reach out and steal it

Ooh-ooh, you’re selling me up the river

I can’t seem to remember

That you said you just needed a friend

Just a friend

When you speak are you holding back

It’s all I’ve asked between now and the past

I’d love to hear you answer that

They’ll turn on the lights and we’ll say our good nights

Though they’re not good enough to last

While I’m tossin' and turnin' babe is your love burnin'

Or have we laid it to rest

Are we really just friends

Are we really just friends
