[Verse I]
You took all the hurt away
When my heart was down
Showed me I was beautiful and made me smile
Always so dependable
A treasure seldom found
There is much in you to be admired

Now you're wanting happiness
To be evermore
And I should be happy and even overjoyed
But my heart is telling me
Deep inside I know
Best of friends is as far as we go

[Chorus]
If only I could be in love
Like you want me to - oh
Life would be so fine
If only all the love in your heart for me
Could be here for you in mine

[Verse II]
I know how it feels inside
To have love unreturned
I know that it seems your love
Will forever burn
How I wish that I could be
The way you were for me
And give you all the things
That your heart needs
[Bridge]
If only I could be in love
Like you ant me to - oh
Then your eyes would not cry
If only all the love that you feel for me
I could feel for you inside
There's nothing I can do
I'm not in love with you

[Chorus]
If only I could be in love
Like you want me to - oh
Life would be so fine
If only all the love in your heart for me
Could be here for you in mine
