(words by daryl hall & john oates
Music by daryl hall)

You and i have separate lives girl
You and i go different ways on roads that cross
When love and loss is ruled by fate
People have a tragic habit
Of letting love get in the way
They tend to lose their overviews and overplay

Something i wanna say
Something i've got to do
Feels like you're drifting away
And i don't wanna lose you

I'll try to find a way to encourage you
It's easy to convince myself
Cause i can't believe you'd wanna be with somebody else
People have a tragic habit
Of letting love get in the way
They tend to lose their overviews and overplay

Something i wanna say
Something i've got to do
Feels like you're drifting away
And i don't wanna lose you
