More Than Friends | For My Best Friend Who Never Knew

I never planned to fall for my best friend. It happened quietly. Somewhere between the late-night calls, the random messages, the “love you” before hanging up, and the “miss you” when we hadn’t talked all day… something changed for me. She still means those words as a friend. I don’t. And maybe that’s the hardest part. I listen when she talks about someone she likes. I laugh when she tells me her stories. I’m still the person she calls when she needs someone. Nothing has really changed between us. Except what I feel. “More Than Friends” is about loving someone quietly when they only see you as their best friend — and choosing to keep that love to yourself because losing the friendship would hurt more than never being loved back. For my best friend, who never knew. 🎧 MORE THAN FRIENDS — Aihara Wudaq ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ LYRICS [Verse 1] We talk about the stupid things Like we always have You tell me who you're thinking of I tell you who I've had We laugh until it's way too late Then say goodnight and hang up You say, “Love you, bestie” And I smile and say it back [Pre-Chorus] But somewhere in between The calls and all the little things Something changed inside of me And you never noticed [Chorus] You say you miss me I wish you knew how much I miss you You say you love me But not the way I wish you do To you, I'm just your best friend The one who's always there But every time you say those words I wish they meant something more You don't know You don't know That I'm falling for you [Verse 2] I know the things that make you laugh The things that make you cry I know when you say you're okay You're probably telling me a lie And when you meet somebody new I listen like a friend should do I smile and tell you, “Go for it” While wishing it was me and you [Pre-Chorus] I never meant to fall It just happened over time Now you're the first thing on my mind And the last before I sleep [Chorus] You say you miss me I wish you knew how much I miss you You say you love me But not the way I wish you do To you, I'm just your best friend The one who's always there But every time you say those words I wish they meant something more You don't know You don't know That I'm falling for you [Bridge] Maybe I'll never tell you Maybe that's for the best 'Cause losing you would hurt much more Than keeping this in my chest So I'll be the friend you call When you need somebody near I'll laugh at all your stories And hide what brought me here And when you say, “I love you” I'll say it back like I always do You'll never know That I mean it differently [Final Chorus] You say you miss me And I pretend that's all I need You say you love me And I hide what those words mean to me To you, I'm just your best friend And maybe that's enough So I'll keep loving you quietly Without asking for your love You don't know You don't know And maybe you never will [Outro] We'll still say, “Love you” We'll still say, “Miss you” Just like we've always done You think it's friendship I know it's love And I'll keep it to myself As long as I still have you ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ More Than Friends is a modern romantic pop song about secret feelings, unrequited love, friendship, and the complicated space between being someone’s best friend and wanting something more.
