[Verse 1]
I never would have guessed that you might want me
I didn't see that something in your eyes
Please don't think your sweet words disappoint me
Oh, it's okay, you just took me by surprise

[Verse 2]
There through thick and thin is where I had you
Someone I could lean on through it all
And all the times that you were there to catch me
I never once suspected you might fall

[Chorus]
As soon as "see you later" becomes "don't leave me"
We know it won't be over whеn it ends
The only thing I see is no more you and mе
When we start making lovers out of friends

[Acoustic Guitar and Piano Solos]

[Verse 3]
So please don't throw "forever after" at me
If you want to keep me close, then don't be mine
The way to live each day in love and laughter
Is if we never ever cross that line
[Chorus]
As soon as "how you doin'?" becomes "I'm sorry"
And the answer to "what's new?" is "that depends"
We both know that it's true there'll be no more me and you
When we start making lovers out of friends
When we start making lovers out of friends
