So many fish there in the sea

I wanted you, you wanted me

That's just a phase, it's got to pass

I was a train moving too fast

Didn't understand what to see

Yeah, then I got a different view

It's you, no

Wait, I'm not gonna give it a break

I'm not your friend

I never was

I said wait, I'm not gonna give it a break

I'm not your friend

I never was

So many fish there in the sea

She wanted him, he wanted me

That's just a phase, it's got to pass

I was a train moving too fast

Yeah, I know you warned me

But this is too important

Now I got a different view

It's you

Why can't you wait?

I'm not gonna give it a break

I'm not your friend

I never was

I said wait, I'm not gonna give it a break

I'm not your friend

I never was
