The Green Pajamas

I Just Want To Be Your Friend

Looking at the ocean
Endless and blue
You say your heart is broken
That ain't nothing new
But as I watch the tears come down
My heart breaks too

	I just want to be your friend
	That's all that it's about
	I just want to be your friend

Then you accidently touch me
In this sandy place
I pretend that I'm still listening
As my heart starts to race
Then your hair blows like a wildfire
Right into my face

	I just want to be your friend
	That's all that it's about
	I just want to be your friend
	And kiss you on your mouth

I saw you from the coastal road
Crossing through the bower
You were in the thin white dress
With the little flowers


I wish that I could hold you
You wish that you were dead
I wish that I could undo
All the things he said
I wish that we could sail your father's boat
Right off the world's edge

	I just want to be your friend
	That's all that it's about
	I just want to be your friend
	And kiss you on your mouth
