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)
