Maddie & Tae have done it yet again. Their new live acoustic rendition of their hit, “Friends Don’t” is an anthem to all of those who may be stuck in the friend-zone and are finally climbing their way out of it into a blossoming new relationship that they’ve been waiting for. Or maybe you’ve been friend-zoning your potential soulmate for the longest time only to realize that “Friends Don’t.” Whatever this jam means to you, at least we can all agree that we will all be blasting this in our car at one point or another, if not immediately.
Turn your speakers up all the way and sing along with the lyrics below:
[Verse 1]
They don’t cancel other plans
Have conversations with nothing but their eyes
They don’t hear each other’s names and forget to concentrate
Hits a nerve and lights you up like dynamite
[Chorus]
Friends don’t call you in the middle of the night
Couldn’t even tell you why
They just felt like saying “hi”
Friends don’t stand around, playing with their keys
Finding reasons not to leave
Trying to hide the chemistry
Drive a little too slow, take the long way home
Get a little too close
We do, but friends don’t
[Verse 2]
They don’t almost say “I love you”
When they’re downtown somewhere, just a little drunk
They don’t talk about the future and put each other in it
And get chills with every accidental touch
[Chorus]
Friends don’t call you in the middle of the night
Couldn’t even tell you why
They just felt like saying “hi”
Friends don’t stand around, playing with their keys
Finding reasons not to leave
Trying to hide the chemistry
Drive a little too slow, take the long way home
Get a little too close
We do, but friends don’t
[Bridge]
I keep telling myself this might be nothing
But one look in your eyes and, God, there’s something
You can lie to me and say you don’t
But I know you do, and I love you too
[Chorus]
Friends don’t call you in the middle of the night
Couldn’t even tell you why
They just felt like saying “hi”
Friends don’t stand around, playing with their keys
Finding reasons not to leave
Trying to hide the chemistry
Drive a little too slow, take the long way home
Get a little too close
We do, but friends don’t
Friends don’t
