L.U.V U From Afar

I watch you live a lie, try love a hundred times
You think you're in the wrong, but you just chose the wrong guy
You been looking in the wrong place, the answer's been in your face
It should've been me the whole time, bae, you just don't see me that way
Yeah, whoa, you just don't see me that way
I know that I gave you plenty of reasons why that would never change
You said you wanted to stay friends, I told you I wanted the same
I was lying when I said it back then, now that shit's been driving me so insane
Best friends since seventeen, and your presence heavenly
And you make me wanna work to become a better me
But I know, I know, I know, I know
I know it'll never work, and that shit fucking hurts
I know that it'll be hard, but I love you from afar
And I know, I know, I know, I know it won't work
It'll never work, and songs like this just make it worse
But fuck it, I love you, I tried moving on
But always looked for you in her, no one else above you
I would lay it down for you, baby girl, I hope you know it's true
I'd put my life on the line for you
And if you were missing a heart, I'd rip the heart out my chest
Risk my entire life just so that your life wouldn't end
If I had a time machine, yeah, I'd go back and do it all again
We're supposed to be more than friends, we're supposed to be more than
Best friends since seventeen, and your presence heavenly
And you make me wanna work to become a better me
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know we'll never work, and that shit fucking hurts
I know that it'll be hard, but I'll love you from afar
Cause I know, I know, I know, I know
I know that we'll never work
