I don't know Maybe we're near the end Darlin' oh how can we go on together Now that we've grown apart Well the only way to start Is heart to heart One by one We're collecting lies When you can't give love You give alibis Now I'm gonna do right This time I gotta do right I don't want to leave I don't want to say good-bye But sooner or latter There comes a time When you gotta do right Darlin' Tell the truth Don't turn away This is our last chance To touch each others hearts Does anything last forever? I don't know Maybe we're near the end Darlin' how can we go on together Now that we've grown apart Well the only way to start Is heart to heart Why are you so torn apart? I need a little more lovin' in my heart People say that love will grow So how was I to know Love that's come through years and years Can't find a way back home anymore (SOLO) Darlin' Tell the truth Don't turn away This is our last chance To touch each others hearts Does anything last forever? I don't know But maybe we're near the end So darlin' oh how can we go on together Now that we've grown apart Well the only way to start Is heart to heart Does anything last forever? I don't know But maybe we're near the end So darlin' oh how can we go on together Now that we've grown apart Well the only way to start Is heart to heart
