What would you think if I told you I've always wanted to hold you? I don't know what we're afraid of Nothing would change if we made love. Chorus: So I'll be your friend And I'll be your lover 'Cause I know in our hearts we agree We don't have to be one or the other Oh, no, we could be both to each other. Yes it's a chance that we're taking And somebody's heart may be breaking Oooh, but we can't stop what's inside us Our love for each other will guide us. So I'll be your friend And I'll be your lover 'Cause I know in our hearts we agree We don't have to be one or the other I've been through you You've been through me Sometimes a friend is the hardest to see And we always know when it's laid on the line Nobody else is as easy to find So I'll be your friend (I'll be) And I'll be your lover Cause I'll be your friend (I'll be) And I'll be your lover 'Cause I know in our hearts we agree We don't have to be one or the other Oh, no, we could be both to each other.
