Went from strangers to hello

From going out to going home

To ending up in what we didn’t know we started

Went from saying this won’t work

To you wrapped up in my shirt

And somehow now I have the keys to your apartment

I guess the best mistakes

Still can’t be undone

I just hope that when you think of me

You don’t think of me as one

I’m not asking for a lover

I just want us not to end

If I can’t have you

Then I want the closest thing

No I’m not asking to get back again

No tonight, I’m just asking for a friend

I went from waking up with you

To lonely filling up the room

To knowing you could never love me at my darkest

I can get over your kiss

And the late night talks I miss

It’s the distance that you made that hits the hardest

I guess the best mistakes

Still can’t be undone

I just hope that when you think of me

You don’t think of me as one

I’m not asking for a lover

I just want us not to end

If I can’t have you

Then I want the closest thing

No I’m not asking to get back again

No tonight, I’m just asking for a friend

Just asking for a friend, a friend, a friend

I’m not asking for a lover

I just want us not to end

If I can’t have you

Then I want the closest thing

No I’m not asking to get back again

No tonight, I’m just asking for a friend

No tonight, I’m just asking for a friend
