As frequently happens here, what I posted is not what is showing. And, cannot be edited. So...

(Ahhhh) Here we go

There once was a time and there once was a way We had something going and to my dismay Attention to me seemed to drift, though I don't know where

And when we're alone seems there's nothing to say I bring up a topic, you push it away You say that you do but I think it's just you don't care Why do I feel you're using me?

Are we an item, or are we just two? I need some commitment, s'all I ask of you Your lifestyle can change Don't be afraid what you think's in store

I know what's on your mind you've got lots to lose Your shallow acquaintance is what's there to choose You won't get too deep even though I'm worth so much more So think about it carefully

Smile for the while and let's be jolly We shouldn't be so melancholy Come along and share the good times while we can

(Go) (Rock, do you want to hustle?) (Freak, that's right) (Rock, do you want to salsa?) (Freak, that's right) (Rock, do you want to hustle?) (Freak, that's right) (Rock, do you want to salsa?)

If that's how you want it, that's how it'll be There's no use in trying or making you see That love don't come easy you don't know what it's about

To get things together won't take any pain Don't need to see/hear from you never again From this day on listen learned, no more, please count me out And you know what I'm talkin' about

Smile for the while and let's be jolly We shouldn't be so melancholy Come along and share the good times while we can

I know now's the time that I went to find something new You know it's your crime that I'm out to find someone too
