Song Lyrics

We've been friends for a long, long time
You tell me your secrets and I tell you mine
She's left you all alone and you feel like no one cares
But I have never failed you I've always been there

You tell your story it sounds a bit like mine
It's the same old situation, it happens every time
Can't we see oh maybe you and me
Is what's meant to be
Or do we disagree?

What if I told you, what if I said
That I love you?
How would you feel?
What would you think?
What would we do?
Do we dare to cross that line
Between your heart and mine?
Or would I lose a friend?
Or find a love that would never end?
What if I said

She doesn't love you
Oh, it's plain to see
I can read between the lines of what your telling me
And he doesn't hold you the way a woman should be held
How long can I go on keeping these feelings to myself

So what if I told you, what if I said
That I love you?
How would you feel?
What would you think?
What would we do?
Do we dare to cross that line
Between your heart and mine?
Or would I lose a friend?
Or find a love that would never end?
What if I said

Oh and we've both had our share of loneliness
So who's to say we can't have a little happiness
And if I found that in you
It would make my dreams come true
Or would you walk away?
Hear what I have to say

What if I told you, what if I said
That I love you?
How would you feel?
What would you think?
What would we do?

Oh, do we dare cross that line
Between your heart and mine?
I've always wondered from the day that we met
What if I said
What if I said
Ooh
What if I said
