Date a Friend

Be careful if you date a friend, you might fall way too fast
You already know you love him
And he already loves you back
His momma treats you like family
You already got that spare key
Yeah, your crowd is his crowd
And they say you should be together by now (by now)

But don't date a friend
If you don't wanna get your mind read without talking
You can't pretend
They already know the signs when you start withdrawing
They know how your ex treated you, so they wanna treat you better
If you don't wanna wear that sweater, you've been seeing for forever
Don't date a friend
Don't date a friend (don't date a friend)

If you don't wanna hang out with his sister
Or know how he takes his coffee
If you don't live for Sunday dinner or like watching him play hockey
If you don't wanna know that his eyes
Fade from blue to grey

Don't date a friend
If you don't wanna get your mind read without talking
You can't pretend
They already know the signs when you start withdrawing
They know how your ex treated you, so they wanna treat you better
If you don't wanna wear that sweater, you've been seeing for forever
Don't date a friend
Don't date a friend (don't date a friend)

If you don't want it to be easy
If all that's gonna get ruined is the hair you did for 20 minutes
'Cause he wants to undo it
(Don't do it)

Don't date a friend
If you don't wanna get your mind read without talking
You can't pretend
They already know the signs when you start withdrawing
They know how your ex treated you
So they wanna treat you better
If you don't want to wear that sweater, you've been seeing for forever

Don't date a friend (don't do it, don't do it)
Don't date a friend (don't do it, don't do it)
Don't date, yeah
Don't date a friend, date a friend
Mmm, yeah
