Yes, I think she’s perfect for you
I’m so happy that you’re glad
I can tell that she adores you
But if she didn’t, she’d be mad
And I heard you tell your momma
That you think that she’s the one
And then you asked her for the ring
She said was for her son

And I smiled, I couldn’t let you see
That you loving her with me loving you
Is killin’ me
I just smiled like I’ve learned to do so well
Since we agreed best friends we’d be
I’ll never tell

Yes, I think your family loves her
And I’m sure she loves them, too
Yes, I know you’re crazy ’bout her
Why do you need me to approve?
I realize now it’s really over
I guess that I was hanging on
To all the memories we made before
She came along

Before I smiled because I couldn’t let you see
That you loving her with me loving you
Is killing me
I just smile like I’ve learned to do so well
Since we agreed best friends we’d be
I’ll never tell

I’ll just smile, no you won’t ever see
That I have been here waiting for you
So patiently
I just smiled, and I pretended to believe
When you said the best of friends
Is what we need
When you said the best of friends
I just agreed
And I smiled
