it's nearing 1am and I can't help but see you as just a friend

Your arm is around mine and I feel safe but even if it wasn't I wouldn't mind
How did I let it get this far
I promise I didn't mean to drag you along, to bruise or to scar your heart
Something doesn't belong
Forgive my trying,
I just wanted to see if I felt the same
If there was a spark that ignited, or if it was a weak flame
I'm excited that you're in my life, don't get me wrong
I just think I want something different, something that might not last as long
i hope you understand that I tried to find the flame
If I cause you pain to withstand or sadness to bear, you have me to blame, I swear

it's almost 3am, and I still can't help but see you as just a friend.
