"Dinner Parties" lyrics

It's a little early
The sun is barely rising
I've been up and waiting
To finally feel something, something

Picked up another shift
So I could pay the rent
I missed another dinner party
Tell my friends I'm sorry
Another night
Gonna spend alone
Got some love with nowhere to go
If you wanted to you could come over
We could pretend that we're not getting older
Yeah we could pretend

Yeah we could be friends
Or lovers in a different life
'Cause you could never treat me right
But we could be friends
Though something 'bout it isn't right
I'll try to set it all aside

I'll try to forget how I'm feeling about ya
'Cause nothing I want ever stays here for long
I told the truth but you got so dramatic
Saying that you'd never call me the one
So were just friends
Who hold each other when they cry
You always end up by my side
Oh, but not tonight
(Oh, but not tonight)

Meeting my friends now
You all get along
They think you'll hurt me
Could you prove them wrong
Ain't no use trying
No we don't belong
What was I thinking
I'm sure you'd be gone
At the first
Sight of love
I never said
That I trust you
I don't know
What you want
But oh my God
You got issues
And I could try
My best to solve them
In the end
They're not my problems
Maybe we could start again
Things would be different

But for now we are just friends
Or lovers in a different life
'Cause you could never treat me right
But we could be friends
Though something bout it isn't right
I'll try to set it all aside
I'll try to forget how I'm feeling about ya
'Cause nothing I want ever stays here for long
I told the truth but you got so dramatic
Saying that you'd never call me the one
So we're just friends
Who hold each other when they cry
You always end up by my side
Oh, but not tonight
