There ain't no good in our goodbye-in'.
True love takes a lot of tryin', oh, I'm cryin'.


((Let's hang on to what we got.))
((Don't let go, girl, we got a lot.))
((Got a lot of love between us.))

((Hang on, hang on, hang on, to what we got.))
(Doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo.)


You say you're gonna go and call it quits.
Gonna chuck it all and break our love to bits.
(Breakin' up.) I wish you never said it.

(Breakin' up.) No, no, we'll both regret it.
That little chip o'diamond on your hand,
Ain't a fortune, baby, but you know it stands,

(For your love), a love to try and bind us.
(Such a love), we just can't leave behind us.
Baby, (don't you go), baby, (oh, no, no).

Baby, (think it over and stay).

((Let's hang on to what we got.)

((Don't let go, girl, we got a lot.))
((Got a lot of love between us.))
((Hang on, hang on, hang on,) to what we got.)

(Doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo.)

[Instrumental break with vocal stylings.]


There isn't anything I wouldn't do.
I'd go to any price to get in good with you.

(Patch it up.) Give me a second turnin'.
(Patch it up.) Don't cool off while I'm burnin'.
You've got me cryin', dyin' at your door,

Don't shut me out, oh, let me in once more.
(Open up) your arms I need to hold you.
(Open up) your heart, oh girl, I told you,

Baby, (don't you go), baby (oh, no, no).
Baby, (think it over and stay).


((Let's hang on)) girl, ((to what we got,)) girl,
((Don't let go, girl, we got a lot.))
((Got a lot of love between us.))

((Hang on, hang on, hang on,)) to what we got.
(Doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo.)
