Chali 2na]Yo, this is a lesson in friendshipThe depths of a kinshipWhat women and men begin with, and then slipMy pen dripsAs I scribble my thoughts on thin stripsOf emotionA fraction, seduction, attractionEruption of passionCorrupts if a lasted friendship's involvedBut love to cross the lineBut that's why we built these walls[Hook: Nelly Furtado]We been friends for a long time, a very close friend of mineLove you like you was mine, but respect a thin lineI love you like you was mine, think about you all the timeVery close friend of mine, but respect a thin line[Akil]Opposite's attractWhen the female and male come in contactSticky situation in factTryin not to let the feelings catchBut there's a thin line between both of y'allSo you respect thatAnd entertain the idea, but get brought backTo reality, and could you really live with that?Decision, based on intuitionYou love and keep your distanceHug and kiss in friendship[Marc 7]An ongoing kinship, we was people to begin withDisrespect was not intendedBut your feelings sparked the sentenceSometimes you're too intense in your quest to inventThe perfect man, please understand, my rhyme is your repent[[Hook:] - repeat 2X][Soup]Man, too bad that we became friends firstI'm not on expert on how relationships should workBut, (echos) from the minute it as knownIt changed the whole tone on how we spoke on the phoneYo, it was cool but I felt it wasn't enoughAnd I was stuck when your moms would pick it upOver you, all my buddies would swoonBut I felt we were in tune, you let me up in your room. (Damn)But to me girl, you're still off limitsNo matter all the times that I hinted. (Yo, whatchu doin after this?)Infactuation was authentic, but yo I just pretendedSo I wouldn't lose the friendshipMaybe, I should spill all my gutsOr write a letter, then tear it upOr do a song, just to say what's upI want... Just... A touch[[Hook:] - repeat 2X][Nelly Furtado]I can't do this anymoreSee my heart just falls out when you walk in the doorFriendship turns into lust and this only tipThat I can't comprehend even if I knew itCan't do justice to these things that I'm feelingYou got someone else, don't wanna be caught stealingHell if she knew she would never leave us aloneIn the roo-ooo-ooom[Chali 2na]This was a lesson in friendshipI stress in this sentenceShould women and men be friends first?And then slip?My pen drips as I scribble my thoughts on thin stripsOf devotion[Akil]Opposites attractAnd best friends make a perfect matchIf you only knew thatOnce you cross, ain't no turning backThe minute you let him in it and he hit thatThat's that[Marc 7]We was people to begin with, but you was too relentlessJeporidizing kinship, respect is intendedResolve is my intentWhile we got it inI'm tryin to salvage a friendship[[Hook:] - repeat 2X]
