lyrics

It was a crazy year, it was kicking off with the band, and in the nights and every part of life the tubes were burning bright, and the sound was crystal clear

I was sitting on the floor with two sisters with their heads in my hands, I was about to disappear, I could feel everything reducing down to nothing else

But its not science
It's not a union
It's not love, though I feel it as if it was
It's not art or God
It's not here for too long
It's just a line or two that gets you thinking that you are
That you are more than a friend now to someone

She starts reactions one by one like a particle that moves when I have stopped
Everybody can see but she just carries on

It's impossible to face the empty blackness that dominates inside me every time I hear you name with another or another said with yours

But its not my concern
It's not a fact I can even let on
It's not for me, but my hands still on your arm
It's not right it's not wrong
Sometimes it's there sometimes it's not
But when it is there's nothing i want more than to be more than more than a friend now to someone

So talk it over once or twice
There's always someone with advice
Not that it means that much in my experience
If you're married or not
If you want more than you've got
That's the trouble with love

There is ahead a spinning wheel of fate that turns emotions complex and complicated as the day
But I just leave it for others, not for me
And it weaves and expands the tapestry of lovers and love and life and all their different strands
I just can't tell anymore what's meant for me

But it's not my responsibility
Its not a fault I can even perceive
It just feels like a cheater when I'm not
Maybe I want to be?
What would you even think?
What would you say if you knew these things and I was more than more than a friend now to someone?
