(Words by Daryl Hall & John Oates; Music by Daryl Hall)


You and I have separate lives girl

You and I go different ways on roads that cross

When love and loss is ruled by fate

People have a tragic habit

Of letting love get in the way

They tend to lose their overviews and overplay

Something I wanna say

Something I've got to do

Feels like you're drifting away

And I don't wanna lose you

I'll try to find a way to encourage you

It's easy to convince myself

Cause I can't believe you'd wanna be with somebody else

People have a tragic habit

Of letting love get in the way

They tend to lose their overviews and overplay

Something I wanna say

Something I've got to do

Feels like you're drifting away

And I don't wanna lose you
