What if I made some time to listen to you
What if you made some time to hear me too
What if we took the time to realize
Givin' some love is givin' compromise
What if I could show you that my love is true
Without all these changes we be going through
What if we learned to play it by the rules
[Chorus:]
What if we was cool...cool
Wasn't acting like fools...fools
What if we was cool...cool
Wouldn't that be cool
What if we tried something not tried before
What if we let love open up the door
What if we set some goals, but not too high
What if we both agreed to really try
What if we knew that we could disagree
But s'til made love the first priority
Show me love like you're suppose to do
[Chorus]
Do you hear me baby
'Cause our love is fading
Can I get the message through to you
I'm someone to love
What if we had equality for all men
What if we forgot all our forefather sins
What if you forgot the color of my skin
What if you could wear the skin I'm in
What if we knew that we could disagree
But still make love the first priority
Show me love like you're suppose to do
[Chorus]
People can yousee
'Cause our love is fading
Can I get a message through to you
Can we keep this thing cool
A lot of love we're needing
I'm ready and I'm willing
Don't you know that I s'til think of you
As someone to love
[Chorus out]
