about

This song was written while reading the autobiography by Sara Bareilles, making it definitely inspired by the song "Love Song." Also from having to hear the kids play the "Doc McStuffins" theme song over and over.

lyrics

I won't pretend you're my date
Underneath the mistletoe at eight
I won't say that you're mine
While getting eggnog at nine

I won't trouble you again
While you Snapchat at ten
But it sure feels like heaven
When you smile at me at eleven

Side hug at midnight no kiss
As the year ends
But I'll be alright
Because I know we’re still friends

Side hug at midnight no kiss
For new year's
But I'll be alright
here's my toast - cheers
No these aren't tears

Maybe this will be the year
I finally learn how to be sincere
I finally tell you how I feel
But I know it’ll never be real


Thinking of you gets me excited
But my love will remain unrequited
being friends is enough for me
I’ll always treat you respectfully

Side hug at midnight no kiss
As the year ends
But I'll be alright
Because I know we’re still friends

Side hug at midnight no kiss
For new year's
But I'll be alright
here's my toast - cheers

As the ball drops my heart stops
Maybe this will be the year
Tell you how I feel make it all be real
But I don't know how to be sincere

Side hug at midnight
no kiss as the year ends
Side hug at midnight no kiss
For new year's
But I'll be all right
here's my toast - cheers
No these aren't tears
