like me and you

Went about this the wrong way the first time
But I bet you'll respect me now
So don't get the wrong idea
It's not what you think it's about
Cause we'll never be more than friends
At least not for right now

And you know I wish I was more like you
So here I go writing a song or two

You're in love with your best friend
And I'm falling for you
You write songs about her and I write songs about you
You always want what you can't have
So I guess that saying is true
For people like me and you who learn the hard way
I guess I'll never learn

You had me waiting for you
Like the night tube on a weekday
Cause you never come around and I wish you would
It's fun for me to imagine
What life with you would be like
Just like you imagine her one day becoming your wife

And you know I wish I was more like you
So here I go writing a song or two

You're in love with your best friend
And I'm falling for you
You write songs about her and I write songs about you
You always want what you can't have
So I guess that saying is true
For people like me and you who learn the hard way

Every day since we met
Don't get tired of it
You're the pain in the ass that I'm willing to have
You're in love with your best friend
And I'm falling for you

You're in love with your best friend
And I'm falling for you
You write songs about her and I write songs about you
You always want what you can't have
So I guess that saying is true
For people like me and you who learn the hard way
I guess I'll never learn
