My Best Friend is Gay


I have something to tell you,
but I’m afraid what you will say.
You’re someone I look up too,
in a very special way.

I’m afraid you will get angry,
then hurt my feelings too.
I guess I’ll just say it,
my best friend “I love you.”

Do not say too much right now,
just let it all sink in.
No matter what your answer is,
I feel it’s still a win.

Your friendship means a lot to me,
I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
As I sat there thinking,
maybe I could be your girl.

We are always here together,
in a good and special way.
Wouldn't it be better though,
if we were a couple everyday?

I’m listening for your answer,
but you said it couldn’t be.
You liked the way we were,
it had nothing to do with me.

You said you had a secret,
and it was time that I found out.
You weren’t straight, you were gay,
you knew, without a doubt.

Shocked in my embarrassment,
I didn’t know what to say.
Best friends don’t keep secrets,
especially to say you’re gay.

Things were never quite the same,
from that very moment on.
My feelings had to go away,
I knew I must be strong.

Our friendship slowly slipped away,
he found a boyfriend too.
Maybe he'll come back around,
when their relationship is through.

I miss my best friend very much,
and accept him nonetheless.
He will always be my friend,
even if he's not my best.
