Story Behind The Song
Kiana picked up guitar and the song just kind of wrote itself. Instrumentally, it's far less complicated from some of her earlier work but the lyrics mean a lot. The song is about two people yearning to be more than just friends where they both want a romantic relationship but are too scared to tell the other person how they really feel.- Singersroom- https://singersroom.com/content/2021-11-12/kianas-new-single-just-friends-released/

Lyrics
I really wanna love him yeah
But I don't wanna fuck this up
I really wanna hold his hand yeah
But will it change the two of us
I'm not into romance
I might like it if it comes to you
I don't know what we should call this baby
But I'm into you
I don't wanna show I like you darling
I'm not the needy type
And we're great the way we are lets face it
This love can't be right
I really wanna love him yeah
But I don't wanna fuck this up
I really wanna hold his hand yeah
But will it change the two of us
Can I be your Friend
Can I be your lover
Cause that's the way it seems
We drag this on
Anticipations killing me
Maybe you can tell we're just friends
I'll see you in the bedroom at 10
Baby you can tell we're just friends
You know that it gets to my head
Maybe you can tell we're just friends
I'll see you in the bedroom at 10
Baby you can tell we're just friends
You know that it gets to my head
Head spinning while I'm day dreaming
Our friends worried bout our timing
I'm just glad that they chimed in like
Cause we've known each other for awhile now
And I'm just tryna get wild now
Your ex the reason that you've been down down down
I'm tryna make you smile now
Lets not pretend were just friends cause we both know
That not the case
The next place that we gon go
We keep on the low
Tryna keep it down but you put on a show
And I love your sound
I need an encore
Always coming back to get more and feel again
Wanna be your boyfriend but you tell your friends that were just friends
I really wanna love him yeah
But I don't wanna fuck this up
I really wanna hold his hand yeah
But will it change the two of us
Can I be your Friend
Can I be your lover
Cause that's the way it seems
We drag this on
Anticipations killing me
Maybe you can tell we're just friends
I'll see you in the bedroom at 10
Baby you can tell we're just friends
You know that it gets to my head
Maybe you can tell we're just friends
I'll see you in the bedroom at 10
Baby you can tell we're just friends
You know that it gets to my head
