Oh, as far as far as I remember   You've been here walking next to me   Just a friend I thought was all I needed   Now I realize what a fool I've been      Here I am the greatest of pretenders   Always looking but too afraid to see   That this feeling going on inside me   Is a love that was always meant to be      God, I wish I was your lover   Why did I have to wait?   Guess I'll always be the lover too late      Every time I see you   I'm aching, I'm breaking   If only I could tell you   You're more than a friend      If only I could show you   I love you forever   We'd never be apart   I could be the angel of your heart      There you go leaving with another   Days without you so hard to contemplate   If I count every lonely waking hour   Will I always be the lover too late?      Every time I see you   I'm aching, I'm breaking   If only I could tell you   You're more than a friend      If only I could show you   I love you forever   We'd never be apart   I could be the angel of your heart      God, I wish I was your lover   Why did I have to wait?   Guess I'll always be the lover too late   Every time      Every time I see you   I'm aching, I'm breaking   If only I could tell you   You're more than a friend      If only I could show you   I love you forever   We'd never be apart   I could be the angel of your heart
