Anthony

I was walking down the street, just enjoying my stride

You caught my eye, but I brushed it aside

I didn't give you the time of day, but you stayed right there

And soon we were close friends, with so much to share

Long talks in the evening, always a good time

Wise, funny, and caring, you started to shine

Anthony, we started out as close friends

But now I never want our love to end

You lift me up when I need a friend to lean on

And when your days are hard, I want to keep you strong

I'll give you encouraging words to help you make it through

'Cause I keep finding my way back to you

Twenty-twenty-three, we decided to date

We were crazy in love, I thought you were my fate

I always wanted to fix you a plate when you walked through the door

You’re so hardworking, baby, I couldn't ask for more

You would sing your heart out to me over every love song

Making me feel like right here is where I belong

Anthony, we started out as close friends

But now I never want our love to end

You lift me up when I need a friend to lean on

And when your days are hard, I want to keep you strong

I'll give you encouraging words to help you make it through

'Cause I keep finding my way back to you

Life threw us some curveballs, tried to end our fate

Put a heavy pause on us, made us separate

But a connection like ours doesn't just fade to black

No matter what happens, we keep finding our way back

Yeah, no matter the distance, we find our way back

Anthony, we started out as close friends

But now I never want our love to end

You lift me up when I need a friend to lean on

And when your days are hard, I want to keep you strong

I'll give you encouraging words to help you make it through

Started out as friends, but I'm forever loving you
