How to Write a Love Song for Someone You Don’t Love (A Like Song)
We’re like chalk and cheese,
The sun and the breeze,
I am the sword,
And you are the sheaf.
But we’re best friends,
Closest pals,
I’ve seen you chase,
A million gals,
And mended your heart every time;
Doesn’t mean you can have mine.
I don’t hate you,
I just don’t love you,
But you’re too.
In love with you,
To understand.
I’m your friend,
Here to the end,
I just like you.
Whenever I cry,
Next to you I lie,
Hearing you sigh,
Makes me feel safe inside.
I can’t lose that,
My go-to guy,
The one I trust,
Gives me strength to try,
Almost everything ‘cept for you;
I can’t give you what you want.
I don’t hate you,
I just don’t love you,
But you’re too.
In love with you,
To understand.
I’m your friend,
Here to the end,
I just like you.
In the dark,
Lying beside you,
Knowing it’s a mistake.
Don’t make me think,
You need me,
Cos I’ll kill you,
And I need you,
To pull through.
Don’t leave me,
In the dark,
Without you.
I need you,
But you’ll kill me,
Break my wings.
We’ll kill each other,
Like a moth’s burning wings.
We can’t fly without wings.
I don’t hate you,
I just don’t love you,
But you’re too.
In love with you,
To understand.
I’m your friend,
Here to the end,
I just like you.
I don’t hate you,
I just don’t love you,
But you’re too.
In love with you,
To understand.
I’m your friend,
Here to the end,
I just like you.
So just like me too.
I need you.
A/N: It’s been a lifetime since I tried to write lyrics, I guess I’ve just been lacking inspiration lately; I think that must be what happens when everything in your life is going pretty well. So basically, this is about a good guy friend of mine who asked me to be his girlfriend last week and I said no. I feel shit about it, so I wrote a song. Yes, my logic is strange. Anyways, I hope you like it and please let me know what you think/how to improve. :)
