[Intro]
Oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1]
Why you gotta hug me
Like that every time you see me?
Why you always making me laugh?
Swear you're catching feelings

[Pre-Chorus]
I loved you from the start
So it breaks my heart

[Chorus]
When you say I'm just a friend to you
'Cause friends don't do the things we do
Everybody knows you love me too
Tryna be careful with the words I use
I'll say it 'cause I'm dying to
I'm so much more than just a friend to you

[Verse 2]
Mmm
When there's other people around
You never wanna kiss me
You tell me it's too late to hang out
Then you say you miss me

[Pre-Chorus]
And I loved you from the start
So it breaks my heart

[Chorus]
When you say I'm just a friend to you
'Cause friends don't do the things we do
Everybody knows you love me too
Tryna be careful with the words I use
I say it 'cause I'm dying to
I'm so much more than just a friend to you

[Bridge]
You, ooh
You, ooh
You, ooh
You, ooh

[Chorus]
You say I'm just a friend to you
Friends don't do the things we do
Everybody knows you love me too
I try to be careful with the words I use
I'll say it 'cause I'm dying to
I'm so much more than just a friend to you

[Outro]
A friend to you
A friend to you
A friend to you

Meghan Trainor

Meghan Trainor is a pop singer-songwriter from Nantucket. Before launching her solo career, she wrote songs for the likes of Sia and Sabrina Carpenter. She entered pop stardom with the controversial but danceable body-positivity anthem “All About That Bass,” which led her 2015 debut LP, Title.

In 2016, Meghan released her sophomore effort Thank You, which was preceded by the smash single “NO.” Peaking at #3 on the Hot 100, top 20 track “Me Too” & the reggae-influenced “Better” supported the release of the album.

Staying reasonably quiet in 2017, Trainor dropped the single “I’m A Lady” for the “The The Lost Village.” Trainor underwent vocal surgery during the year and needed time to rest her voice before returning to the limelight.
