Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I can only speak for

The things that I've been through

So when it comes to our love

I'll talk the whole night through

About the lovin' I've been missin'

Lately, baby, I ain't had no kissin'

Don't you love me?

Can we stay together

Like when we used to be in love?

[Verse 2]

But now you've got your head on another cloud

Girl, we had a good thing (What a good thing)

But now you've turned around

Don't you care how this love we've had turns out?

[Verse 3]

Promise me you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever (Ooh, yeah)

Promise me, you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever

[Verse 4]

We can work at our love

And make it all brand new

If we stay together

There's nothin' we can't do

Improve the lovin', is what I'm seein'

Let's do it, baby, don't fight the feelin'

Won't you love me?

Can we stay together

Like when we used to be in love?

[Verse 5]

But now you've got your head on another cloud

Girl, we had a good thing

But now you've turned around

Don't you even care how this love we've had turns out?

[Verse 6]

Promise me you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever

Promise me, you'll leave me never (Ooh, tell me)

And that we'll be in love forever (Forever)

[Verse 7]

Promise me you'll leave me never (Girl)

And that we'll be in love forever (Ooh, ever)

Promise me you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever

[Verse 8]

Promise me you'll leave me never

(Ooh, promise me you'll leave me never)

And that we'll be in love forever

(Don't you promise)

Promise me you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever (Promise me)

[Verse 9]

Promise me you'll leave me never (Forever and ever)

And that we'll be in love forever (And ever, and ever)

Promise me you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever

[Verse 10]

Promise me you'll leave me never (Forever and ever)

And that we'll be in love forever (And ever, fallin', oh)

Promise me you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever

[Verse 11]

Promise me you'll leave me never (Promise me)

And that we'll be in love forever

Promise me you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever (Promise me)

[Verse 12]

Promise me you'll leave me never

And that we'll be in love forever
