Lyrics

Do you call your friends Buttercup?
Do you let them lap you up?
Do you let them see you dirty?
Do you let them wash you clean?
Until there's no need to be so wordy,
And you're left lucky in bed, smiling.

CHORUS:
I wanna be your friend forever
But forever is a time that's just made up.
I would risk a fake forever
for a few sweet tastes of buttercup.
I could see us more together
But it looks like your mind is frozen up.
I would risk days of cold weather
for a few warm nights as your buttercup.

Do you call your friends pretty?
Do you let them drink on their knees?
Do you let them tickle your ears?
Do you let them take a bite?
Until you're bleeding through all your fears,
And you're left soberly drunk
for once at night.

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Actions
They speak louder than words
So i've stopped going by everything I've heard.
Because when you touch me
There's no way to comprehend,
That all you really want
is one more friend.

DOUBLE CHORUS:
I could be your friend forever
But forever is a time,
It's just made up.
I would risk a fake forever
for a few sweet tastes of buttercup.
I could see us more together,
But someone hurt you and now
you're all hung up.
I can appreciate bad weather
You need rain to grow buttercup.
I wanna be your friend forever
But forever is a time that's just made up.
I would risk a fake forever
for a few sweet nights of buttercup.
I could see us more together
But it looks like your mind is all made up.
There's no such thing as forever
But I spent one night as your buttercup.
