Did we feel like we lost control
searching for that missing piece
keeping us from asking the questions
that left us half of the whole
Did our egos plead to be consoled
is there something we needed to prove
while we stood there in hesitation
leaving our passion out in the cold
Did we take ourselves for granted
when we just didn't see, feeling nonplussed
cause we didn't say what needed to be said
a missing link to love, what once was, what once was
Girl, you and I, do or die
single hearts beating even faster
baby come on, you and I, one more try
two in love, what we lost is found
See it for what it is and not just because
we paid the price, so no holding back
we can't give in, it's never too late
as we continue to write the story of us
Walking this life and next, a perfect fit
expecting everything and feeling the effects
from all that we've been through
knowing what we know now, don't fight it, don't fight it
We can feel something happening here
whatever we need to make us complete
searching for that sacred place
what didn't work before is now obsolete
Girl, you and I, do or die
single hearts beating even faster
baby come on, you and I, one more try
two in love, what we lost is found
See it for what it is and not just because
we paid the price, so no holding back
we can't give in, it's never too late
as we continue to write the story of us
