If all I could ask of you is just one thing, I'd bring the friendship back, the time, perhaps the sting, the moments ago when I fell in love, because the friendship was real and new, not what we've now fallen into.

If all I could ask of you is just one thing, I'd ask for the caring smile you gave, or at least the words that warmed my heart, the emotion that was there at the start.

If all I could ask of you is just one thing, I'd bring back the time before your emotions changed, before you went off and became something new, the you that my emotions hooked and latched onto. I'd ask for the friendship that made my life work, the one that made my life start over. I'd ask for the want, the lie, the desire, the one that made it alright to cry.

If all I could ask of you is just one thing, I'd ask for true friendship, not this momentary fling
