Story Behind The Song
We've all found ourselves, at some point, falling for a friend. Emotionally it can be so confusing when you're just not sure how the other person will respond. As songwriters we have the option of putting our feelings and questions to music to test the tides. That's how this song came to be.

Lyrics
What if I fell in love with you?
What would that do, to you and me?
What if I fell in love with you?
Would you turn me away, or could you say that you love me too?
What if I fell in love with you?
Would I lose a friend, or would you stay with me 'til the end?
I may be doing what I should not do
Falling in love with you, falling in love with you
I may be doing what I should not do
But I need to know if you could love me too
What if I fell in love with you?
Would it answer your prayers, have I ever been there before?
And if I told you I really want to hold you
Could you give me your heart, or would you part like the setting sun?
I need to know if you could love me too
'Cause if you could, I would take you in my arms and never leave
This promise I will keep, 'cause to me it means the world
What if I fell in love with you?
Would you let it begin, should I hold it all in? oh no
What if I said I'd be hoping for romance?
Would it take you by surprise, could you give it a chance? I don't know
