For Now
Lyrics/Music: Bridget Lewis
I'm not coming to you, with my heart in my hands.
I really only know that you're my kind of man.
But, now that we're datin', I've got to know —
Gotta understand
What this means to you.
(so tell me)
Am I just a friend
you want in your bed?
Please don't try and pretend,
you'll hurt me in the end.
As a friend I know you love me,
that I can clearly tell.
But I keep trying to see
if that is the entirety.
I'm sure it'd give me so much pleasure
to — well, you know —
but I swore that I would never
unless you swore forever.
Tell me... Oh, please tell me,
Do we have a shot at forever,
or does this just gotta do with now.
You don't have to say "I love you",
'Cause even I don't know if I do.
But please just tell me there's a chance,
you're not just playin' 'round with romance.
(so tell me)
Am I just a friend
you want in your bed?
Please don't try and pretend,
you'll hurt me in the end.
As a friend I know you love me,
that I can clearly tell.
But I keep trying to see
if that is the entirety.
I'm sure it'd give me so much pleasure
to — well, you know —
but I swore that I would never
unless you swore forever.
Tell me... Oh, please tell me,
Do we have a shot at forever,
or does this just gotta do with now.
Don't want to give you all my firsts
if you're just trying to slake your thirsts
Don't want to give myself to you
if you know some day you'll say we're through
(so tell me)
Am I just a friend
you want in your bed?
Please don't try and pretend,
you'll hurt me in the end.
As a friend I know you love me,
that I can clearly tell.
But I keep trying to see
if that is the entirety.
I'm sure it'd give me so much pleasure
to — well, you know —
but I swore that I would never
unless you swore forever.
Tell me... Oh, please tell me,
Do we have a shot at forever,
or does this just gotta do with now.
Well I've hurt myself before
By thinkin' that he wanted more.
And it wasn't heart break
(but still) I don't want to make the same mistake.
(so tell me)
Am I just a friend
you want in your bed?
Please don't try and pretend,
you'll hurt me in the end.
As a friend I know you love me,
that I can clearly tell.
But I keep trying to see
if that is the entirety.
I'm sure it'd give me so much pleasure
to — well, you know —
but I swore that I would never
unless you swore forever.
Tell me... Oh, please tell me,
Do we have a shot at forever,
or does this just gotta do with now.
