We've been friends for a long long time,
You tell me your secrets
And I'll tell you mine.
She's left you all alone
And you feel like no one cares,
But I have never failed you
I've always been there.

You tell your story
It sounds a bit like mine,
It's the same old situation
It happens every time.
Can't we see it, oh maybe you and me
Is what's meant to be,
Do we disagree . . .

What if I told you, what if I said,
That I love you.
How would you feel, what would you think,
What would we do.
Do we dare to cross that line
Between your heart and mine,
Or would I lose a friend
Or find a love that would never end.
What if I said . . .

She doesn't love you, oh it's plain to see,
I can read between the lines
Of what you're telling me.
He doesn't hold you the way
A woman should be held.
How long can I go on
Keeping these feelings to myself.

What if I told you, what if I said,
That I love you.
How would you feel, what would you think,
What would we do.
Do we dare to cross that line
Between your heart and mine,
Or would I lose a friend
Or find a love that would never end.
What if I said . . .

Oh, we've both had our share of loneliness,
So who's to say that we can't
Have a little happiness.
And if I found that in you
It would make my dreams come true,
Or would you walk away,
Hear what I have to say.

What if I told you, what if I said,
That I love you.
How would you feel, what would you think,
What would we do . . .

Oh, do we dare to cross that line
Between your heart and mine.
I've always wondered from the day that we met,
What if I said,
What if I said,

What if I said
