They don't cancel other plans
Have conversations with nothing but their eyes
They don't hear each other's names
And forget to concentrate
Hits the nerve and lights you up like dynamite
Friends don't call you in the middle of the night
Couldn't even tell you why
They just felt like saying hi
Friends don't stand around playing with their keys
Finding reasons not to leave
Trying to hide the chemistry
Drive a little too slow
Take a long way home
Get a little too close
We do
But
But
But

But friends don't
They don't almost say I love you
When they're downtown somewhere just a little drunk
They don't talk about the future
And put each other in
And get chills with every accidental touch
Friends don't call you in the middle of the night
Couldn't even tell you why
They just felt like saying hi
Friends don't stand around playing with their keys
Finding reasons not to leave
Trying to hide the chemistry
Drive a little too slow
Take a long way home
Get a little too close, sweet do, but friends don't
I keep telling myself this might be nothing
But one look in your eyes and God, there's something
You can lie to me and say you don't
But I know you do, and I love you too
Friends don't call you in the middle of the night
Couldn't even tell you why, they just felt like saying hi
Friends don't stand around playing with their keys
Finding reasons not to leave, trying to hide their chemistry
Drive a little too slow, take a long way home
Get a little too close
Too close, sweet do, but friends don't
Friends don't
