Keepsake to Keep


Won't breathe a word of what you mean 
It isn't a prize to boast nor gain to sing

And I act like I'm the first to ever have loved
But it wasn't meant to be - not with you, not like this, not with me

Head over shoulders, dived right in

All thats left to do is wait for this ship to sink

It isn't in the throws of passion, when I sigh a name I don't believe

It isn't when you say you love me, those words you never utter for me

Its when you glance my way from across the floor

Its when you touch my knee and no one knows

When you kiss my cheek and I'm half-asleep

Its when you nod your head to say 'I'll be there'

I cherish this friendship, that's what this is

A friend I love, a keepsake to keep
