Girl, I've got somethin' to tell you
I know we've been friends for a long time
But I got to let you know
How I feel inside

Girl, I've been so close to you
And my love has grown inside
I need you by my side
The way you make me feel
When you're around
You opened up my eyes
To what love is all about

(I love you)
Oh, I do
(Baby, I love you)
(I love you)
(Baby, I love you)
I love you

We are friends, now let's be lovers
I'll show you love like no one ever has
We are friends, now let's be lovers
I'll give you love like no one ever has
No one ever has

So come and take me by the hand
And lead me to your love
The kind of love I've always waited for
If you love me, girl, then let it show
Don't worry what others say
It's us you should be thinkin' of

(I love you)
(Baby, I love you)
I do
(I love you)
I do love you
(Baby, I love you)

Girl, just give our love a chance
An everlasting love
That'll never end

(I love you)
(Baby, I love you)
I do
(I love you)
I do love you
(Baby, I love you)
(I love you)
(Baby, I love you)

Girl, I've been so close to you
And my love has grown inside
I really need you by my side
The way you make me feel
When you're around
You opened up my eyes
To what love is all about

We are friends, now let's be lovers
I'll show you love like no one ever has
We are friends, now let's be lovers
I'll give you love like no one ever has
No one ever has

When we first met
I never thought I would feel this way
(No, no)
But I got to tell you what I feel inside
I love you (I love you)
And I want you to be mine
Forever
