Don't think I can't feel there's something wrong You've been the sweetest part of my life so long I look in your eyes, there's a distant light And you and I know there'll be a storm tonight This is getting serious Are you thinking 'bout you or us [Chorus] Don't say what you're about to say Look back before you leave my life Be sure before you close that door Before you roll those dice Baby think twice Baby think twice for the sake of our love, for the memory For the fire and the faith that was you and me Baby I know it ain't easy when your soul cries out for a higher ground 'Coz when you're halfway up, you're always halfway down But baby this is serious Are you thinking 'bout you or us [Chorus] Baby this is serious Are you thinking 'bout you or us Don't say what you're about to say Look back before you leave my life Be sure before you close that door Before you roll those dice Don't do what you're about to do My everything depends on you And whatever it takes, I'll sacrifice Before you roll those dice Baby think twice
