Platonic Lyrics by Petrie

To Crowd You with Love

2021

[Intro]
I'm a petty guy, buddy, touché

[Verse 1]
You're growing up, I'm still a child
Don't think of what you're leaving behind
Shed a tear, once in a while
But otherwise you're gonna be fine

[Pre-Chorus]
So I don't know if we should kick it alone (Yeah)
'Cause this is how you fall in love with a ghost (Oooh)
I'd never hold you to ransom, baby (Ransom)
We didn't work and it's such a shame (It's such a shame)
Won't shake his hand if he's handsome, baby (Handsome)
Yeah, I'm a petty guy, what can I say?

[Chorus]
'Cause the thought of you with someone else still drives me 'round the bend
And I hope to keep you in my life but what thе hell's a friend?
With a kiss, kiss so sweet
Can we еver be platonic again?
With a kiss, kiss so sweet
I could die (Yeah)

[Verse]
You'll settle down, and have a child
I worried I was never your guy
I made you frown, I drove you wild
I'll never stop reliving our time

[Pre-Chorus]
So I don't know if we should kick it alone (Yeah)
Unless you wanna fall in love with a ghost (Oooh)
I'd never hold you to ransom, baby (Ransom)
We didn't work and it's such a shame (It's such a shame)
Won't shake his hand, he's too handsome, baby (Handsome)
Yeah, I'm a petty guy; buddy, touché

[Bridge]
Trying to sleep, don't come 'round
When you've got the blues
I would say yes
I would fall in (yeah)

[Chorus]
'Cause the thought of you with someone else still drives me 'round the bend
And I hope to keep you in my life but what the hell's a friend?
With a kiss, kiss so sweet
Can we ever be platonic again?
With a kiss, kiss so sweet
I could die (Yeah)

[Outro]
'Cause the thought of you with someone else still drives me 'round the bend (It drives me 'round)
And I hope to keep you in my life but what the hell's a friend?
With a kiss so sweet
Can we ever be platonic again?
With kiss so sweet
I could die
