Romanovsky & Phillips - Best Friends lyrics

I was sixteen<br />

Going on twenty-one<br />

I called it a relationship<br />

You called it having fun<br />

We were best friends<br />

Doing things kids do<br />

And no matter what you'd like to think<br />

We were lovers too<br />

Chorus:<br />

Boys will be boys<br />

If they are left to their own devices<br />

Boys will be boys<br />

But often they make sacrifices<br />

Men will be men will be men will be men<br />

Afraid of being boys<br />

We shared all our secrets<br />

'Round an open fire<br />

And wrestled with each other<br />

As we wrestled with desire<br />

We walked along together<br />

'Til you ran off in fright<br />

And me, I took a left<br />

And you, you took a right<br />

(Chorus)<br />

Sometimes you're too young to know<br />

Some things you just outgrow<br />

But I know what I felt for you<br />

And it must have scared the hell out of you<br />

Now we are two grown men<br />

Two very different lives<br />

I'm happy with my lover<br />

You seem happy with your wife<br />

We are two grown men<br />

Trying to pretend<br />

That nothing ever happened<br />

That we were only friends<br />

(Chorus)
