Don't misunerstand me
I was just a little kid
Thinkin' that the street life
Was the only way to live
Always holdin' out for another thrill
Chorus:
We've come a long long way
So tell me why can't we settle for love
Is it that hard at the end of the day?
Tell me why can't we settle for love
Before it's too late
Whatever it is you think you're missing
Time to let your heart go
Cause when you've walked this kind of distance
We can't fool each other anymore
Maybe there is a light that won't go out
Chorus:
We've come a long long way
So tell me why can't we settle for love
Is it that hard at the end of the day
Tell me why can't we settle for love before
it's too late
