[G]We met through friends, in the [D]lunchroom crowd,
[Em]Caught your vibe, but I [C]played it down.
[G]Didn't wanna get too close, didn't [D]wanna blur the lines,
[Em]You were into girls, and I [C]thought that'd cross a line.
[G]April or May, time kinda [D]slips,
[Em]But those worries started [C]fading, bit by bit.
[G]Started hanging out more, kept it [D]low-key,
[Em]Friendly teasing turned to [C]something kinda sweet.
[G]Hugs and shoulders, casual [D]touch,
[Em]Playful jabs turned to [C]cuddles, it didn't take much.
[G]Hand cream swaps, and mints on the [D]sly,
[Em]Hand in hand, feeling [C]something we can't deny.
[G]Feet up, leaning back, our secret [D]little game,
[Em]Classmates talking, but we [C]never claimed.
[G]"We're just friends," that's what we'd [D]say,
[Em]You’re with a girl now, and [C]I’m okay.
[G]But there's this tension, something in the [D]air,
[Em]Unspoken words, always [C]hanging there.
[G]You talk about her, I smile and [D]cheer,
[Em]But inside, there's something that's [C]unclear.
[G]Hugs and shoulders, casual [D]touch,
[Em]Playful jabs turned to [C]cuddles, it didn't take much.
[G]Hand cream swaps, and mints on the [D]sly,
[Em]Hand in hand, feeling [C]something we can't deny.
[G]Caught between lines, in the gray [D]unknown,
[Em]Something's here, even if it's [C]not shown.
[G]Not quite love, not just a [D]game,
[Em]In this vibe, we both [C]remain.
[G]Hugs and shoulders, casual [D]touch,
[Em]Playful jabs turned to [C]cuddles, it didn't take much.
[G]Hand cream swaps, and mints on the [D]sly,
[Em]Hand in hand, feeling [C]something we can't deny.
[G]So we laugh, and we chill, keep it [D]cool,
[Em]Navigating this thing, like [C]unwritten rules.
[G]Friends with a vibe, that’s hard to [D]define,
[Em]In the space between, we're [C]just fine.
