Lyrics

We didn't know we didn't know  
Since I don't know when  
We've been only friends  
No more but no less  
Our friendship we had at best  
  
A voice to console  
An ear to confide  
That someone you tell  
Your deepest of feelings inside  
  
[Chorus]  
But we didn't know  
When we held each other  
It would feel so right  
We didn't know  
On that night we'd be falling in love  
I looked at you  
You looked at me  
In ways we never thought we would be  
But like tomorrow's today's mystery  
We didn't know  
  
Be it big, be it small  
On you I could call  
Nothing but to ask  
You'd be right there in a flash  
  
A hand I could hold  
That friend I could trust  
But the love that we shared  
Was just platonic between us  
  
[Chorus]  
  
That's what happens  
When innocent friends  
Turn serious lovers  
And we're so happy that  
We've fallen in love  
And still can be best of friends  
  
When they'd break your heart  
And when they'd make you cry  
We both would confer  
You should give love one more try  
  
We've searched everywhere  
For true love to find  
Yet who'd think it was us  
That we were longing for all the time  
  
'Cause we didn't know  
When we held each other  
It would feel so right  
We didn't know  
On that night we'd be falling in love  
I looked at you  
And you looked at me  
In ways we never thought  
We would be  
But just like the future  
No one can see  
We didn't know  
  
[Chorus]
