Alex Born - Platonic Lyrics

Falling for strangers without a fee
Heart broken every time they look at me
I could never have one of you for myself
In the end I might as well give up on this quest
Someday you might see it
I'm good at hiding the pain
And although you don't see it
I pretend that you're mine all the way
I wore the best shirt that I had
Yellow so that I would stand out in your sight
But her eyes were green
And you liked them a lot
I forgot I was pretending
Something we were not
It's enough to have you by my side
Even if what I feel is not what goes through your mind
Falling for strangers without a fee
Heart broken every time they look at me
I could never have one of you for myself
In the end I might as well give up on this quest
We stood side by side
Silence comforted us inside
I opened myself to you
It's been years and you haven't replied
You could never love me
I'm awkward in all I do and say
I'm not the one you should be with
You're the reason I can't act straight
