lyrics

You came In through my window trying to get what’s yours see,
you left a letter in my bag but it wasn’t for me.
So in a frantic frenzy, you tried to take it back,
but I couldn’t help but stand in shock at the site of your attack.
(Site of your attack)

You told me to forget about the letter that I found,
that you couldn’t live another second now that your secret’s out and
you said instead of you, it might be better if I died.
But the envelope was empty there was no letter inside.
(No letter inside)

You wrote a love letter to my best friend
but you gave it to the wrong person.
Well you’re such a klutz he doesn’t know you screwed up
and you fainted you were feeling hopeless.
(well)

I told you that a love letter’s nothing to be ashamed of.
So I showed you all the things I wrote for the girl that I love.
I said you should be happy at least you tried to make a move,
but I didn’t think you’d read my notes and see who they were to.

I wrote a love letter to your best friend
and now I guess you know my secret.
Well I’m just like you now what do we do?
I suppose we have something in common.

But now it’s 4am and you refuse to go home
‘cause you don’t think I can be trusted.
But you and I are on the same boat.
I swear to god that I’ll keep your secret.

(You wrote a)
You wrote a love letter to my best friend
and you wanna know if they’re old fashioned.
Well I’ll give you advice but just not tonight,
I’m thinking this can wait until the morning.

Well I guess you’re in love with my best friend
and I’m in love with your best friend too.
So if I help you out will you go home now?
Then maybe later you can help me too.
