For Keeps

i am only smiling
for friends
and for you
i saw the way they looked at me
no I know it could never be true
i am only joking
for friends
and for you
i know what lives inside their eyes
the sadness that resides inside
i am only caring
for friends
and for you
others come and then they go
i know, I always know
i am holding
my friends
and especially you
