I come to you,
As an act of faith
Please convince me that I'm wrong
When I say we don't belong
And it's not too late
 
I sense the call,
From your soul to mine
Is it meant to hurt this way,
Every hour, every day?
It steals our time

And it all comes clear,
As if the moment draws near
 
That it's harder to leave a friend than a lover
All the dreams that you have built
Leaves you with a sense of guilt
In the eyes of the other
 
So, here we stand
A stubborn woman, a stubborn man
(Stubborn woman, stubborn man)
Is it worth to carry on?
Is it time we moved along?
Have we done all we can?
 
And the damage done
(Can we overcome?)
Oh, can we overcome?
(Ooh ooh ooh) 

Cause it's harder to leave a friend than a lover
(Friend than a lover) 
You might love (Aaaaaah) the way you touch
But it will never mean as much
As when you care for each other
 
Is it all we can say?
We never wanted it this way
 
Cause it's harder to leave a friend than a lover
(Friend than a lover)
Yeah, the wounds (Aaaaaah) will run so deep
And the friendship that you keep
Will never recover
 
Yeah, it's harder (Harder) 
To leave a friend than a lover
(Friend than a lover)
When you know (Aaaaaah) someone so well
You would rather walk through hell
Before you hurt one another

Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
