Take all the time that you need to be certain Say nothing 'til you can say what you mean Don't stay with me, just to save me from hurting I may be young, but I'm not green I'm in no hurry for the show, to hear what I already know Chorus: 'Cause you've been coolin' down, even a fool could see Coolin' down, driftin' away from me Day by day, love fades away, coolin' down, coolin' down Trapped in your dreams, for too long you've been yearning To find yourself with a life of your own The love has died and it won't be returning I feel so helpless and alone Now everything I try to do, is right for me, but wrong for you (chorus)
