| F: Boy we?ve known each other now for quite some time, | |
| Long enough to feel when something?s on our minds. | |

| But before you speak, I just want you to listen. I? | |
| (I don?t want to be the last. | |

| M: Rest assured it?s only rumors floatin? ?round. | |
| And though you think you?re just a little bit premature, | |
| It?s good to talk it out. | |
| We?ve got to listen to our heart instead of to the street. | |
| So let?s talk it over. | |
| The same thing goes for me. | |
| Baby I don?t wanna be. | |

| M: I remember when we, had an understanding. | |
| If I feel this change you?ll be the first to know, | |
| (((If I?ve got to go away,) get away,) get away.) | |
| M: Love never promised any guarantee, | |
| That we?d make it. But I can take it. | |
| If it can?t be what it?s been, | |
| Please don?t fake it. Hear me baby. | |
| F: Before we say that final goodbye, | |
| Why not give our love just one more try. | |
| And I promise you if I can?t hang, | |
| You?re gonna be the first to know. | |
