lyrics

Two real good friends talking in the low light
Hushed-voice, excitement, near to midnight
Warm air and drink and this just feels right
Like two lovers in summer, it's almost midnight

The time is right, you swear your love,
But then they look the other way
You wonder how you let this one slip away

You gotta keep your distance but don't let go
Take some space dear, and take things slow
Just take things slow, for now

Their ex-boyfriend is at their show tonight
They see him dancing in the bright lights
You look over later, they've got him held tight
They're not just good friends, and it's close to midnight

You gasp for air, running out the door,
And you realise that they're gone
You were just good friends all along

You gotta keep your distance but don't let go
Take some space dear, and take things slow
Just take things slow, for now

You're out on your luck and you know it's not enough
That they'll never be this close to you
It's a cruel cruel world for good boys and girls
But they never fit the part
"Hey honey, guess I'm sorry, and you're sweet,
But I never owed you anything
No I never owed you anything"

You gotta keep your distance but don't let go
Take some space dear, and take things slow
It was all in your head, dear, you realised it too slow
They always loved you, just not like the love
That you know
