American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
Only Friends and Nothing More. Words by Alice Hawthorne. Music by Sep. Winner. 
We met as many have before, nor wished nor hoped to meet again; Ne'er dreaming of our fate in store, with days or pleasure or of pain. We met again with right good will, yet paused when parting at the door. We lingered with a sigh, but still as only friends and nothing more; We lingered with a sigh, but still as only friends and nothing more. 
Chorus. We met as many oft have met, and just as others have before; We met from time to time, and yet as only friends and nothing more. 
We sat upon the trellised porch full many an eve and pleasant day. In cloud and sunshine off and oft, to wile the happy hours away. The fleeting moments came and went, till months were numbered by the score, And still our passing days were spent as only friends and nothing more; And still our passing days were spent as only friends and nothing more.- Cho.
