[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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]
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

[Bridge]
Knew that one day it would be only love
It would be only...sometimes it's only love
It would be only love, ooh
I knew that in time it would be only love
It would be only love
[Chorus]
And 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

[Outro]
I knew that one day it would be only love
It would be only...sometimes it's only love
It would be only love, ooh
Sometimes love is wonderful
But sometimes it's only love
