[Verse 1]
Here we are again where we've always been
We keep lying but the truth is stepping in
What good is this conversation deep into the night?
Baby, baby, why can't we get this right?
[Verse 2]
The words we say are the words we've said before
And I don't need to hear one word more
This is not a confrontation, we're on the same side
Baby, baby, why can't we get this right?
[Bridge]
Ooh, time keeps moving on and on
And on and on
'Til all the words are gone
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
It's cold out there and the wind is cutting through
And the truth is you need me and I need you
Love never needs an explanation and it doesn't like to hide
Baby, baby, why can't we get this right?
[Bridge]
Ooh, the world keeps moving on and on
And on and on
'Til all of time is gone
[Verse 4]
So here we are again where we've always been
Caught up in the same old movie scene
What good is this conversation if it doesn't shed some light?
Baby, baby, why can't we get this right?
Baby, baby, why can't we get this right?
