What if I made some time to listen to you

What if you made some time to hear me too

What if we took the time to realize

Givin' some love is givin' compromise

What if I could show you that my love is true

Without all these changes we be going through

What if we learned to play it by the rules



[Chorus:]

What if we was cool...cool

Wasn't acting like fools...fools

What if we was cool...cool

Wouldn't that be cool



What if we tried something not tried before

What if we let love open up the door

What if we set some goals, but not too high

What if we both agreed to really try

What if we knew that we could disagree

But s'til made love the first priority

Show me love like you're suppose to do



[Chorus]



Do you hear me baby

'Cause our love is fading

Can I get the message through to you

I'm someone to love



What if we had equality for all men

What if we forgot all our forefather sins

What if you forgot the color of my skin

What if you could wear the skin I'm in



What if we knew that we could disagree

But still make love the first priority

Show me love like you're suppose to do



[Chorus]

People can yousee

'Cause our love is fading 

Can I get a message through to you

Can we keep this thing cool

A lot of love we're needing

I'm ready and I'm willing

Don't you know that I s'til think of you

As someone to love



[Chorus out]
