Friend Zone lyrics – Amanda Shires | Nobody’s Girl

I slept in my make-up and most of my clothes
Tried everything I could
But you just wouldn’t let me get close
For the third time this week
What you don’t know or see
Is that this is all so very unlike me

I wish I could be exactly what you need
Or what you want
But I’m not
So

Let’s just get high and watch Tombstone
Get even higher and watch Rambo
Make silly jokes like where’d his shirt go
While all his friends somehow managed to keep theirs on
Eating jelly beans with ya stoned in the friend zone
I can be friends, but I’m harboring hope

I wish I could be exactly what you need
Or what you want
But I’m not
So

I’ll try and quit thinking
Of the weight of your hand on my back
And coming up with new ways
I could make you laugh
The way the sun set around you at sixty vines
Maybe I could change your mind

You called it mixed signals over a couple mixed drinks
I swore I’d quit trying for the thousandth time this week
But that’s a lie and so unlike me

I wish I could be exactly what you need
Or what you want
But I’m not
So

I wish I could be everything you need
I wish I could be exactly what you need
Or your dream
But I’m not
So, too bad for me
