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]
