[ Featuring Rick James ]
Wow, it's really good to see you (oh, oh)
It was hard from the start (wow)
But I knew you'd never leave him
So much for givin' you my heart
And we promise we'd never grow apart (wow)
But I knew you'd never leave him
So much for lovin' you so hard
We go through things anyway
It makes it hard for you to leave him
Why can't it all just change
Why can't we just get back together? (Why can't we just)
All those lovely nights together (the lovely nights)
I thought love should last forever (forever)
Why can't we just get back together?
No more lonely nights forever (no more lonely nights)
I want a love that lasts forever (oh)
Through it all
It was love from the start, so much to love (wow)
You promise me you'd leave him
I know you've been lovin' him so long
(So long, so long)
And those lonely nights he made you cry
You ran straight to me
But I knew you'd never leave him (leave him leave him)
Why can't we just get back together? (why can't we just)
All those lovely nights together (lovely nights we shared)
I thought love should last forever (forever)
Through it all
(Why can't we?)
Why can't we just get back together? (Together)
No more lonely nights forever (no more lonely nights)
I want a love that lasts forever (forever)
Through it all (through it all)
Through it all, oh, ooh (wow)
