I am still your friend
|
Standing by to catch you
|
If ever life should let you down
|
And you should fall.
|
You don't need to pretend
|
If ever doubt should find you.
|
I don't need to remind you
|
I'm there for you before and after all.
|
I am who I am
|
And I would never fool you.
|
I feel the same way you do
|
About honesty.
|
But do we understand
|
How love is sometimes jaded?
|
It keeps us separated
|
Even though we'll never part.
|
Chorus:
|
So to be lovers
|
We've got to understand
|
Today is how today begins,
|
Tomorrow's how it ends.
|
And to be lovers
|
Some things we rise above.
|
'Cause sometimes love is wonderful
|
But sometimes it's only love.
|
Loving who I am
|
Is something that you've taught me.
|
The kind of love you've brought me
|
Takes me through the day.
|
And even though our minds
|
Are sometimes disagreeing
|
Our hearts they're still believing
|
We'll work it out and stay.
|
(Chorus)
|
