No, don't tell me you love me
To say me, adjust a little
Do not promise the world to me
Nor make it crumble like brittle.

Don't come near me
Saying that my heart flutters for you
Making me blush, teasing my love
Only to stand afar, making me tremble

You told me, you love me
But your feelings are just too hard to infiltrate
There were signs, I ignored
For I am a fool, who watched like a hawk

I do not need you
Nor your promises that breaks
I just want a friend to lean
Who can say, ‘My dear, I am here for you’
