Do you think I love you?
Someone told me you said, "No."
Now, I'm here to tell you
Something you don't know

If I didn't love you
I'd no longer be around
If I didn't care for you
My voice, to you, would make no sound

If I didn't need you
We wouldn't still be friends
If I didn't want you
I'd not have fought until the end

"I think that you don't love me."
Someone said you said that, too
If you didn't love me
Long ago we'd have been through

There would be no friendship
Because there would be no love
We just would have flown away
With lightning speed of doves

The answer now is, "Yes, I do,
I've loved you from the start."
And, "Yes, I'll always be your friend.
For with you goes my heart."
