We Didnt Know — текст песни (Whitney Houston)

(duet with stevie wonder)



Since I dont know when

Weve 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





But we didnt know

When we held each other it would feel so right

We didnt know

On that night wed be falling in love

I looked at you

You looked at me

In ways we never thought we would be

But like tomorrows todays mystery

We didnt know



Be it big, be it small

On you I could call

Nothing but to ask

Youd 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)



Thats what happens when innocent friends

Turn serious lovers

And were so happy that weve fallen in love

And still can be best of friends



When theyd break your heart

And when theyd make you cry

We both would confer

You should give love one more try



We searched everywhere

For true love to find

Yet whod think it ws us

That we were longing for all the time



Cause we didnt know

When we held each other it would feel so right

We didnt know

On that night wed 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 didnt know



(chorus)
