Must have been some bad directions
Brought us around this way
Some kinda misconception
about what love oughta be
We’ve been hangin on the phone
I’ve been tryin’ to explain
Cause if we don’t try
How the hell can we complain
Lord we’re not communicatin’
Honey can you hear me
What’s all this co-miseratin’
about what love oughta be
The back bitin’ comes so easy
Seems unnatural to change
But if we don’t try
How the hell can we complain
(Bridge)
Time changes everything we love
And all we hope to be
Now I’m still the man I always was
Am I still the man you need
Yeah you got a real affection
For giv’n me the third degree
What’s all this deep reflection
about what love oughta be
We could never live alone
I know we’d go insane
So if we don’t try
How the hell can we complain
How the hell can we complain
(Instrumental Bridge)
(Repeat) Am I still the man you need
If we don’t try
