Story Behind The Song
I love rom-coms and after watching this K-drama "Boyfriend on Demand," it made me think about how scary it is for most people to confess their romantic feelings for someone. And how much more difficult it is to confess those feelings when you already have an established relationship, like a coworker or a close friend. Because you don't want to lose that person and that relationship. It can feel like your romantic feelings are just getting in the way, and ruining something that is already good.

Lyrics
Can't look at you like that
No that's not how we act
There's something on the horizon
I'm stomping on the breaks
But I fear it's too late
Cause my head is not the one driving
Afraid to meet your eyes
Afraid they'll read my mind
You might not like what you see there
This doesn't feel okay
I don't know how it changed
Are you even aware
I thought I stayed
In the shallow waters
Where its safe
Somehow I got pulled over under
Now it's gone
That friendship we once had we
Can't carry on
I hope you can forgive me
But I'd try
If you asked me to lock it away
Oh I'd try
To pretend everything is the same
Please don't break us apart
I'll ignore my own heart
If that'll keep you in my life
Then I'd
I always look for you
When I walk in a room
It wasn't like this before
What we had was enough
I'm scared I've messed it up
By suddenly wanting more
Should be ashamed
Too long I've held this inside
Know that I've prayed
For strength to put down my pride
Cause you deserve
The whole truth because we
Are friends first
And if that's all we can be
Then
Then I'd try
If you asked me to lock it away
Oh I'd try
To pretend everything is the same
Please don't break us apart
I'll ignore my own heart
If that'll keep you in my life
Then I'd try
Then I'd try
Please don't break us apart
I'll ignore my own heart
If that'll keep you in my life
Then I'd try
Then I'd try
Please don't break us apart
Please don't break us apart
