You tried your best to show me That you really cared Said if there were days I was lonely Just call you - you'd be there You tried your best convinced me That you understand And if I need someone to hold on to You wanted to be the man Then I knew it was true All the feelings that I had inside for you I could not deny Though many times I tried Give me a little more time I need to make up my mind 'cause you know I'm in two minds I want to be more than your friend Ooh I just can't pretend any longer Feelings getting stronger Give me a little more time You've been there when I've needed You've never let me down I just don't know how I'd cope Without you being around Feelings have grown between us Though friends we have been Don't you think it complicates things Or is it just me Then I knew it was true All the feelings that you had I shared them too I could not deny Though many times I tried Give me a little more time Give me a little more time I need to make up my mind
