Friends and Lovers



For so long I wanted this
I can't believe I have this chance
Of turning our friendship
Into a passionate romance
While we're growing closer
I will encourage your hopes and dreams
I will always listen and support you
And respect all of your needs
Don't ever question
If I'm too good to be true
I only show you who I truly am
And my best is brought out by you
You've already inspired me
To be the best that I can be
No matter what happens between us
Our friendship means the most to me
So I make this one promise to you
That if our romance ever ends
I'll be grateful for the time we did have
And forever I will always be your friend
