Lyrics:
Seems like we’ve run into a complication
You made plans to be on your own
But I’m hopeful as a fool can be
Because I know that in the final scene
That song on the radio
Will turn into a situation
So you can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends
But this ain’t something just friends do
You can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends
But I know that it just ain’t true
Friends don’t look out at the stars and cry in arms at night
Saying everything will be alright
So you can tell yourself we’re just friends
If it eases your mind
I’ll be your friend tonight
You see through every last careful persuasion
You get out fast when I drive you home
You’re reaching out to me
When you’re looking for more than company
I know you’re begging for more
But you leave it at a conversation
So you can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends
But this ain’t something just friends do
You can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends
But I know that it just ain’t true
Friends don’t look out at the stars and cry in arms at night
Saying everything will be alright
So you can tell yourself we’re just friends
If it eases your mind
I’ll be your friend tonight
Breaking that lock on your cellophane heart
I can see through but you always stand guard
Breaking that lock on your cellophane heart
I can see through but you always stand guard
Breaking that lock on your cellophane heart
I can see through what you’re doing when you say
We’re just friends
This ain’t what just friends do
You can tell yourself we’re just friends, just friends
But I know that it just ain’t true
Friends don’t look out at the stars and cry in arms at night
Saying everything will be alright
So you can tell yourself we’re just friends
If it eases your mind
I’ll be your friend tonight
I’ll be your friend tonight
I’ll be your friend
I’ll be your friend tonight

[@warwickbunn1250]

Please, please, please do an 80's style 12" extended mix of this fantastic track 🙏 The sheer musical talent squeezed into 3 mins 27 seconds is mind blowing.😍 Instruments come and go with such confidence, verses and choruses etc. change each time and it all melts into a track so full of emotion and musical adventure that I have to listen again and again to try and hear every little bit of the sounds. I'm so thrilled to have found it. Can you tell ? 🤔

[@flavellinator]

Sounding good in SoCal!

[@뚱고양이]

80년대 느낌이 나네요...음....뭐...그 건...나한테...너무 멋지단 소리....나이를 먹으니... 예전 노래가 넘 마음에 듭니다. 목소리 좋으십니다....

[@ChristianaDumbuya-tz5hg]

Gosh I am in love!!

[@aorroxx3522]

Love it... when's the new album coming?

[@wearethestrike]

Fall of 2024. Going to release all the songs as singles over the course of the year.

[@drstrr]

Nice, song reminded me of The Outfield.

[@vertigocreative]

😖

[@burstingturtle]

Never felt more in love with someone until after hearing this.

[@MalusFantasu-gp5kg]

I really enjoyed your music bro 🤍✨️

[@tazmanturaganivalu5507]

Anyone know where I can download the handwritten font they're using? I love the way it looks.

[@andromedavideo]

Hey man - the font we used is called 'Biro Script' :)

[@haileyv4904]

When will there be a Just Friends concert tour? 💯🎉

[@haileyv4904]

@@wearethestrike Thank you! 🎉🎉🎉

[@charliegraham1118]

Pure Ear Worm Material

[@EnergyShifting]

Just started randomly thinking about this song 😂

[@MarkReviews]

Soooo, you wrote a soundtrack for my late high school years? Ouch. 😂

[@MattWelch1092]

Josie’s on a vacaaation far awayyy … wait whut?

[@TripWamsley]

This is fantastic! Gen X here! Great song! Shit I lived this lyric.

[@thrill8723]

John Waite!!!

[@sanate_sanghming]

Always thought the chorus sounded like the 80s such as "Best Of What I Got" by Bad English. Also, it reminds me of "Gloria" and some other song which i couldn't recall. 😂

[@Oakyla]

Make a tiktok trend using this song to blow it up

[@LoosSerine]

Ngl I almost feel like we should gatekeep The Strike so that they dont turn into another repackaged band. Them flying under the radar is why we get such bangers every time.

[@tinapatina]

Am I the only one that thinks about the Gloria song from the 80s when listening to this? 😅

[@AGENTARMES]

Fast Times vibes

[@briluna560]

Sounds like Physical by Olivia Newton

[@GHO5T3DFreelance]

i don't like it.........................................i LOVE IT!

[@snoogans2891]

Forget you for describing a situation I had no reason believing this song pertained to my situation. (Jk but ow) but I told myself we weren't just friends, just friends cause it eased my mind but it just ain't true.

[@bendruce2972]

The Cars is Goose and this song is Rooster

[@potatogrower]

Christ is King

[@melodyschulz5283]

This comment matters!

[@lorihopkins2159]

😅

[@SpiralCee]

This sounds like a bop ... but the lyrics are kinda stalkerish. "You get out fast when I drive you home"? Yeah, boy, she's just not that into you. Find a girl who doesn't want to get out of your car.

[@cbrnix]

True story. Stupid, funny and pointless.
