[Verse 1]

I don't want to say I

I just want to say we

We make a great team

And teamwork is good

It's good enough for me

And mediocrity is something

I've been trying so hard lately to avoid

By avoiding conversations that lead to confrontation

While confronting my fears of life and failing hard

While hardly making progress

Progressing is a process

I'm processing everything that I've been through so far

[Bridge]

Away, far away

I've been so far away

So far away

[Chorus]

Romance seems like a means to an end

Maybe I don't need a lover, I just need the friend

Who carried my weight when my back was sore

I don't need a lover

I don't need a lover

I said, I don't need a lover

I don't need a lover

I said, I don't need a lover 'cause I don't need anyone

[Verse 2]

And if I came back, would it be like back then?

Then we could get back to a place that's better than it has been

Lately I've been feeling like you might not like me

Like I might be too late

Like there might be other ladies in your limelight

Limelight, limelight

You'll get it when the time's right

It's my life, my life, but romance takes the spotlight

Lately I've been feeling like I might not like me

Like I might be too late

Like it might be too late

(I'm too late)

I'm too late

[Chorus]

Romance seems like a means to an end

Maybe I don't need a lover, I just need the friend

Who carried my weight when my back was sore

I don't need a lover

I don't need a lover

I said, I don't need a lover

I don't need a lover

I said, I don't need a lover 'cause I don't need anyone

[Outro]

I don't need a lover

I don't need a lover 'cause I don't need anyone

I don't need a lover

I don't need a lover

I don't need a lover
