I replay the memories in my mind.
I try to find the answers,
To the questions I find.
I can never seem to work it out.
What goes on inside.
Tell me is it secret?
Or am I just blind.
And the further we go,
The more that I know,
We just can't keep going this way.
If you could only tell me baby what you needed tonight.
Maybe I could do my best to stop you walkin'
out of my life.
If you could only see inside my heart,
You'd know this was right...so right.
If I could just read your mind.
If I could just read your mind.
Oh come on boy, just lay it on the line.
I can wait no longer,
For the right place or right time.
Do I need to spell it out to you?
What more can I say.
Tell me is it over,
Or have we just lost our way.
And the further we go,
The more that I know,
We just can't keep going this way.
If you could only tell me baby what you needed tonight.
Maybe I could do my best to stop you walkin'
out of my life.
If you could only see inside my heart,
You'd know this was right...so right...so right.
If I could just read your mind.
Oh baby, if I could just read your mind.
If you could only,
Maybe I could do my best to stop you walkin'
out of my life.
If you could only see inside my heart,
You'd know this was right...so right...so right.
If I could just read your mind.
If I could just read your mind.
Oh baby.
I've got something to tell you baby
In the arc of a love affair
Lies the point of no return
First you lose your self respect
Then you hide all the hurt
Well, I've been here thinkin'
Long enough to figure out
That a change has got to come
And it's all up to you
Be good or be gone
Love me or leave me baby, leave me alone
Cause I can be real bad baby, all by myself
Umm, one day you're gonna find yourself, by yourself
You see the choice is so simple now
Cause there really is no choice to make
I not gonna let you treat me badly
No, I won't be makin' that mistake
And it's all up to you
Be good or be gone
Love me or leave me baby, leave me alone
Cause I can be real bad baby, all by myself
Umm, one day you gonna find yourself, by yourself
Make a decision, make up your mind
Give me my proper respect and baby, don't ever forget
That a real love is precious and rare
But you've got to be ready to give, and ready to share
It's all up to you
Be good or be gone
Love me or leave me baby, leave me alone
Cause I can be real bad baby, all by myself
Umm, one day you gonna find yourself, by yourself
If I lay down the past
And I let myself go
Put my heart in your hands
And forget what I know
Can I trust you, baby
What goes on in your mind ?
I feel myself falling
It's been such a long time
Chorus:
It's a miracle, baby
To find love that's true
Will you be there for me
If I give myself to you
If I give myself to you
I've been hurt before
And I've tried to forget
But the pain lived inside
'Till you and I met
If I follow you, baby
And I love you blind
When you're sure I've fallen
Will you still be kind ?
Repeat chorus
If I follow you, baby
And I love you blind
When you're sure I've fallen
Will you still be kind?
