Baby, can you come and take a walk with me
There's something that I need to say
I know you're changing and it's plain to see
That feeling's getting in the way

I know it isn't easy
To tell it like it is
But, baby, I can take it if it has to be
I can take it if it is the end

If it is the end, then we can be friends
If it is the end, then just say when

Over coffee we can talk it out
It's just a fact of life
That two people cannot carry on
When something isn't feeling right

I know it isn't easy
To tell it like it is
But, baby, I can take it if it has to be
I can take it if it is the end

If it is the end, well we can be friends
If it is the end, then just say when

I know it isn't easy
To tell it like it is
But, baby, I can take it if it has to be
I can take it if it is the end

If it is the end, well we can be friends
If it is the end, then just say when...
