Let's sit and talk it over
Express to one another
The things we feel
The things we both need to reveal
Let's start communicating
Before it's much too late
And I do believe
It's time that we speak candidly

I'll forgive you for the pain
If you forgive me just the same
Let's kiss and make-up
Before we slip and break up

We can't let it slip away
Our love we've got to save
Before it slips away
We can't let it slip away
Our love we've got to save
Before it slips away
Before it slips away

Sometimes I say things that I
Say just to attack your pride
Though I really don't mean it
I call myself try to get even
Lord knows we belong together
We know we need each other
I believe we can win
If we just try to start all over again

If we listen to our hearts
The way we heard it from the start
I know that when we wake up
We'll find it's time to make-up

We can't let it slip away
Our love we've got to save
Before it slips away
We can't let it slip away
Our love we've got to save
Before it slips away
Before it slips away

If we give up on us
I'm sure that we'll regret it
And if we give up on love
I'm sure in time
We'll come to find
That it's just not worth it
Just not worth it

We can't let it slip away
Our love we've got to save
Before it slips away
We can't let it slip away
Our love we've got to save
Before it slips away
Before it slips aw
