Always a Friend

Always a friend and nothing more
You never coming knocking on my door
Always near but never close
That's where I'll stay, a good friend to most

Outside the circle looking in on the rest
Wish I could be more than a hidden guest
I wait for a chance to say "hello"
Am I just a part of some puppet show?

Standing there, you just look through
You walking right by, what can I do?
Never knowing how to impress
Is that what I want? Or do I obsess?
