*featuring Stevie Wonder
|
|
Since I don't know when
|
We've been only friends
|
No more but no less
|
Our friendship we had at best
|
|
A voice to console
|
An ear to confide
|
That someone you tell
|
Your deepest of feelings inside
|
|
But we didn't know
|
When we held each other it would feel so right
|
We didn't know
|
On that night we'd be falling in love
|
I looked at you
|
You looked at me
|
In ways we never thought we would be
|
But like tomorrow's today's mystery
|
We didn't know
|
|
Be it big, be it small
|
On you I could call
|
Nothing but to ask
|
You'd be right there in a flash
|
|
A hand I could hold
|
That friend I could trust
|
But the love that we shared
|
Was just platonic between us
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
That's what happens when innocent friends
|
Turn serious lovers
|
And we're so happy that we've fallen in love
|
And still can be best of friends
|
|
When they'd break your heart
|
And when they'd make you cry
|
We both would confer
|
You should give love one more try
|
|
We searched everywhere
|
For true love to find
|
Yet who'd think it ws us
|
That we were longing for all the time
|
|
Cause we didn't know
|
When we held each other it would feel so right
|
We didn't know
|
On that night we'd be falling in love
|
I looked at you
|
And you looked at me
|
In ways we never thought we would be
|
But just like the future no one can see
|
We didn't know
|
|
[Chorus]
|
