Less than a lover, more than a friend

You have watched me as I grow,
When you read my mind
You know all there is to know,
There is nothing you can’t find.

(Chorus)
But, still, you are to me
Less than a lover, more than a friend,
In this way we’ll go on for ever,
You are less than a lover, more than a friend,
Oh for ever, till the end.

When my life is on the line,
You give me a reason to live.
It’s you I want to be mine,
It’s you I want to be with,

(Chorus)
But, still, you are to me
Less than a lover, more than a friend,
In this way we’ll go on for ever,
You are less than a lover, more than a friend,
Oh for ever, till the end.

(Bridge)
There were times we were on fire,
Never felt such desire,
There were times we were on fire,
We went higher and higher,
On the wings of love,
We soared above
Never looking down,
Down to the ground.

(Chorus)
But, still, you are to me
Less than a lover, more than a friend,
In this way we’ll go on for ever,
You are less than a lover, more than a friend,
Oh for ever, till the end.
