Lyrics Gary Valenciano

Gary Valenciano

Only a Friend

You called me on the phone late last night

The rain was pouring down as you cried

You said he hurt you bad

And that he broke your heart

Like all the others did

And so you thought

You just needed to talk to a new friend

Cause only a friend can mend a heart

That's torn and broke in two

And only a friend can keep your trust

And love you (just for you/for just being you)

Only a fool can overlook

The way I look at you

But it doesn't really matter after all

Cause I'm only a friend to you

I told you life's like that and it's okay

I know he didn't love you that much anyway

And I say, Just look around

Who knows somewhere, somehow

Someone's waiting to be found

So just let him go, then you will know

The one who's loved you most

Is now the one who's loving you back

Bridge:

Will it matter if I told you

Just how much I long to

Be more to you

[Repeat Chorus]
