Why - 98 degrees LYRICS

We do almost everything that lovers do,
and that's why it's hard just to be friends with you.
Everytime your heart is broken by the fool,
I want you to know that it hurts me too.
It's hard to wipe your tears away.
I know and that you should be with me.
Now tell me why..

Chorus:
Why, why are we still friends,
when everything says we should be more than we are?
and tell me why,
everytime I find someone that I like,
we end up just being friends.

I would hate for you to find somebody new,
Who you really love, cause it would mean losing you.
But am I a fool girl not to see,
if I'm always scared I'll lose you anyway.
Somehow somewhere I've got to choose.
No matter if it's win or lose.
Now tell me..

(Chorus)

I don't wanna be like your brother,
I don't wanna be your best friend.
I only wanna be your lover.
When will this end?
If i told you that I wnat to be in your life,
then you could be the woman in mine.
Now tell me

(Chorus x2
