My Love, My Friend

I come on home
I've got a chick
We watch a movie
But she won't stick

The next night comes
And I come home
You see me there
I'm not alone

Another day
Another girl
She's all dressed up
And wearing pearls

A different girl
Every night
So many dates
That I don't like

I see you there
You stare at me
Looking jealous
Under the tree

I sit by you
I talk to you
Now we're friends
I like you, too

The days pass by
We're getting close
I've got a crush
Give you a rose

Now we hug
I hold you tight
I think about you
In dreams at night

Am I in love?
This deep, warm feeling
I can't turn back
My heart you're stealing

This feels so right
When I hold you
Your brother smiles
He's found love too

The years go by
We're still in love
This must be a match
From angels above

I hold your hand
And take a knee
Then I ask you
To marry me

Your eyes light up
They fill with tears
You think way back
On the past few years

You open your mouth
But you can't speak
You nod your head
And kiss my cheek

I think the thing
Is that we were friends
Friendship helps
And never ends

So now you know
Our love won't end
I love you so
My love, my friend
