I Don't Want A Lover

I don't want a lover, I just need a friend

I don't want a lover, I just need a friend



You can't just leave me to face life on my own

I know you don't love me no more, I knew this day it would come

Even when it cuts so deep, it's true I still want you

But the harder I try, the more I seem to lose



I don't want a lover, I just need a friend

I've had time to recover, now that I know it wasn't love



It's always a different story when it's me who's in the wrong

But you can't have it all cause I'm the one who's strong

I've already been burnt before, once but never again

I know the time will come, that's when you'll need me then



I don't want a lover, I just need a friend

I've had time to recover, now that I know it wasn't love

I don't want a lover, I just need a prayer

I know you never cared, now that I know it wasn't love



You don't even care about what I'm saying

You don't even think what you're doing

All you see is what you want it to be

But in there there's just no room for me, yeah

There's just no room in there for me

I don't want a lover, I just need a friend

I've had time to recover, now that I know it wasn't love

I don't want a lover, I just need a prayer

I know you never cared, now that I know it wasn't love.
