Reed Deming Losing A Friend
{VERSE 1}
I used to fly close to the sun
Then one day I crashed
I started clipping my wings
Said walking wasn't so bad
Even though I had a dream
To be someone's other half
I chose to stay on my feet
I chose to stay on my feet
But then I looked up
And I saw you flying
Just like a dove
On the horizon
And despite all my baggage
All the pain I've been hiding
I wanna fly up to you
But my scars know better
{PRE-CHORUS}
Last night I started writing you a text
With a song that I wrote about you when we met
I was about to hit send
But I didn't want us to end
Cause winning a lover
Ain't worth losing a friend
{CHORUS}
So I'm keeping you close
But never too close
Keeping you close
But never too close
Keeping you close
But never too close
Cause winning a lover
Ain't worth losing a friend
{VERSE 2}
I'm just holding my breath
Don't know what to do next
Girl I took you to prayer
But I didn't like what He said
Said I gotta give it time yeah
Know I gotta let it go
Gotta trust in the Provider
Embracing being on my own
It's so easy to say that
But it's harder to do
Girl I hit replay
On that night out with you
With you I was home, home, home
Wish time could've froze, froze, oh
Wanted to say something
But girl I know better
{PRE-CHORUS}
Last night I started writing you a text
With a song that I wrote about you when we met
I was about to hit send
But I didn't want us to end
Cause winning a lover
Ain't worth losing a friend
{CHORUS}
So I'm keeping you close
But never too close
Keeping you close
But never too close
Keeping you close
But never too close
Cause winning a lover
Ain't worth losing a friend
{BRIDGE}
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna be friends
But girl I'ma be your friend
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna be friends
But girl I'ma be your friend
I don't feel nothing
You don't feel nothing
Girl can we please pretend
Hearts have been frozen
Bridges were broken
Gotta be me again
{PRE-CHORUS}
Last night I thought about taking a shot
Confessing it all to you from the heart
Girl I would tell you the truth
But what would you do if you knew
That's why winning your loving
Ain't worth losing you
{CHORUS}
I'm keeping you close
But never too close
Keeping you close
But never too close
Keeping you close
But never too close
Cause winning a lover
Ain't worth losing a friend
{TAG}
I don't wanna lose you baby
(I don't wanna be friends)
I don't wanna lose you baby
(I don't wanna be friends)
I don't wanna lose you baby
(I don't wanna be friends)
Girl it's not worth it
Girl it's not worth it, ohh, oh
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna be friends
I don't wanna be friends
