i’m not looking for a friend
Beth Keeping, Kaity Rae
I'm not looking for a friend to buy me dinner
Kiss me in the New Year as the lights go down
I don't want to wear your jacket in the winter
People thinking we're together every time we're out
Back in February you were acting into me
And it's not you ain't had the opportunity
So if you're looking for a friend to fill the spaces
Drag it out for ages got to tell me now
If I'm someone you don't wanna lose
I'm the kind of girl you've got to choose
You're taking up my energy
I can't believe I’ve got to spell it out to you
It's not always first sight (yeah)
Some things just take time
You can always change your mind
But if you know when you know then you know when you don't
You're in or you're out babe
Don't stand in the doorway
Looking at me like you never want it to end
Again and again
If you're just looking for a friend
I'm not looking for a friend to take to weddings
Dates in Little Venice tell me all your news
I'm not looking for platonic you should really want it
Stop it if you're never going to make a move
Because you're walking every line like a circus act
So if you're not going to fall how do I deal with that
You should be bending over backwards
Admitting I'm a catch and lighting up when I walk in the room
If I'm someone you don't wanna lose
I'm the kind of girl you've gotta choose
You're taking up my energy
I can't believe I’ve got to spell it out to you
It's not always first sight (yeah)
Some things just take time
You can always change your mind
But if you know when you know then you know when you don't
You're in or you're out babe
Don't stand in the doorway
Looking at me like you never want it to end
Again and again
If you're just looking for a friend
I'm not looking for a friend
If you're playing it cool then you're playing it wrong
If you're taking your time then you're taking too long
If you're weighing the pros and you're weighing the cons
If I'm only a friend then I'm moving on
If I play on your mind and you're playing it down
If I'm taking your time and you're taking me out
If you're calling me up then I'm calling you out
If I'm more than a friend just admit it now
It's not always first sight (yeah)
Some things just take time but
You’ve got to want to try
If you know when you know then you know when you don't
You're in or you're out babe
Don't stand in the doorway
Looking at me like you never want it to end
Again and again
If you're just looking for a friend
I'm not looking for a friend
If you're playing it cool then you're playing it wrong
If you're taking your time then you're taking too long
If you're calling me up then I'm calling you out
If I'm more than a friend just admit it now
