Minnie Riperton - Lover And Friend текст песни

(Riperton, Rudolph, St. Lewis, Dozier)

Guess we always knew best of friends we'd always be;

Sister and brother, we two; romance never entered our view...

Always, you were there, hey, hey, when I needed you ;
Suddenly, out of nowhere, I realized I loved only you...

And that's how true love begins: it just walks right on in;
And one day I knew, it was you, it was you, it was always you!

Baby, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend;
Darling, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend...

Mmm, funny how it goes; we'd be the last to know
We were meant for each other, and from friends we became lovers...

Keep on being my friend - our love will never end;
We'll have it all! Yes we will, yes we will, yes we will!
Yeah...

Baby, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend, yeah;
Darling, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend...

Oh, keep on being my friend - our love will never end;
We'll have it all! Yes we will, yes we will, yes we will!
Yeah...

Baby, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend, yeah;
Darling, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend...

We're gonna have a happy ending, mmm, yes;
We started out with such a great beginning!
We'll walk together, talk together, in every kind of weather...
We're bound together... forever, yeah!

Baby, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend, yeah;
(In the end, I've got you, you, you, you... you, you, you, you...
Darling, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend...
(My lover! Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah...)
Baby, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend, yeah;
(I love being friends with my lover, yeah!)
Darling, in the end, I've got you as a lover and friend...
