​not the same Lyrics by Eli Derby

More Than Friends

2022

[Verse 1]
I remember when you was the one, oh, oh-oh (Ooh, ooh-ooh, yeah)
Never thought I'd say that we were done, ooh, ooh-ooh (Done)
But I haven't missed you in so long (Long), yeah
I know something's different (Different)
I know something's missin'

[Chorus]
It's just not the same
Close but not enough (Enough)
Thought that it was love (Love)
It's just not the same
Since we linked back up (Up)
I don't feel your touch (Your touch)
It's just not the same (No, oh-oh)
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh (Baby)
It's just not the same (Not the same, oh, oh-oh)
Oh, oh-oh (Oh, oh-oh), oh, oh-oh
It's just not the—

[Verse 2]
I'm on my shit, I stayed down, I been patient
My new bitch hittin' now 'cause the old thing's just too basic
I'm takin' trips now, I done seen the world, I done been places
I'm with like two girls, I done touched down and we in Vegas
Step off the plane, I got my ways (My ways)
And I ain't make it all this way to stay the same
Now that I'm straight (I'm straight)
They say I've changed (No, oh-oh)
(But it's not)

[Chorus]
It's just not the same
Close but not enough (Enough)
Thought that it was love (Thought that it was love)
It's just not the same
Since we linked back up (Since we linked back up, up)
I don't feel your touch (Your touch)
It's just not the same (The same)
Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh (Baby)
It's just not the same (Not the same, oh, oh-oh)
Oh, oh-oh (Oh, oh-oh), oh, oh-oh
It's just not the—

[Outro]
Not the same, not the same
Ain't no way, yeah, yeah
