All tracks are BIB except the arpeggio guitars.

You are charged with the kind of motivation
that always takes my breath away
The day we met I sent you running through my heart
Switching on the lights and turning darkness into day

Locked in breathless emotion
Swinging to the sound of your voice
So anxious to know and desperate to show
I'm not just one of the boys

But I know
as quickly as it begins
the risk is coming
it's hard to pretend
Keep it to yourself
Don't let on we're just friends
I was captured by the same anticipation
that always seems to follow you
Hanging on to every word that passed your lips
Enchanted by the style in every little thing you do

It's just an illusion
a dream that I made for you
I'll keep it inside, hang on to my pride
for dreams have a way of coming true

And I know
I can hear it coming
and once it's said
it's hard to pretend
I don't want to hear it
You don't have to share it
Keep it to yourself
Don't tell me we're just

Friends don't give up their secrets
Friends don't kiss in tha moonlight
Friends don't put their thoughts away
and hold onto each other in the middle of the night

I don't want to hear it, I don't want to know
Please don't say it, don't tell me we're just
I don't want to hear it , I don't want to know
Please don't say it, don't tell me we're just friends
not just friends
I don't want to be just friends
No, not just friends

Hey Will,

I REALLY liked this one.

The backing was very busy and detailed, but I could still hear everything and the way it cruised along was great.

Loved the story, particularly the lines -

"Friends don't give up their secrets
Friends don't kiss in tha moonlight
Friends don't put their thoughts away
and hold onto each other in the middle of the night"

That was inspired.

I see you've not been with us long, so let me say welcome to the forum and I look forward to more of your stuff.

ROG.

I really like this!! Very well written and great vibe.

he day we met I sent you running through my heart
Switching on the lights and turning darkness into day

Great lyric. I would change the word "sent" to "felt" -just an opinion

Really enjoyed this! Take care. Greg

I agree with you about the word change

Greg,
You were spot on with your suggestion of changing "sent" to "felt". I did a new vocal and remixed. Here's the result. You'll be getting a tiny royalty check.
