A friend is a friend
Nothing can change that

When people keep repeating
That you'll never fall in love
When everybody keeps retreating
But you can't seem to get enough
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
Let my love open the door
To your heart
When everything feels all over
When everybody seems unkind
I'll give you a four leaf clover
Take all the worry out of your mind
Let my love open the door

To your heart
I have the only key to your heart
I can stop you falling apart
Try today, you'll find this way
Come one and give me a chance to say

It's all I'm living for
Release yourself from misery
Only thing's gonna set you free
That's my love
Let my love open the door

Don't let them bring you down
Love can cure your problems
You're so lucky I'm around
Let my love open the door

Also, Amy Grant's "Baby Baby" was not written for a spouse/lover, but for her third baby-on-the-way.
Baby, baby
I'm taken with emotion.
To love you with the sweetest of devotion.
Baby, baby,
the stars are shining for you.
And just like me,
I'm sure that they adore you.
