The very first time
That I saw your brown eyes
Your lips said hello and I said hi

I knew right then you were the one
But I was caught up
In physical attraction

But to my satisfaction
Baby you were more than just a face


And if I ever (ever fall) in love again (again)
I will be sure that the lady is a friend
And if I ever (ever fall) in love so true (true)

I will be sure that the lady's just like you

Oh, yeah, the very next time she'll be my friend


If I say that I will be your one and only
(promise, promise) Promise that you'll never leave me lonely

I just wanna be the one you need
Oh, baby
I just wanna be the one who serves you

Sometime I feel as if I don't deserve you
I cherish every moment that we share


chorus

Very next time she will be my friend

Someone who I can believe in

(my friend)

I need someone who'll be my friend
(my friend)
To be with me through thick and thin

(my friend)
Please share my love with me my friend
I need someone like you


chorus
