People walkin' round all lost and confused Ready to throw their lives out in the gutter Ain't no love between 'em, father to son, man to woman, brother to brother You and me we move in opposite directions Like two spheres on their separate planes Ain't nobody loved me better than you done So why can't we just find a way to (ooh) stay together Chorus: Let's stay together, life's too hard to make it all alone And peace and harmony don't come in packages with bows And true love ain't somethin' you find layin' around Don't you know, let's stay together Let's stay together Mothers don't you turn your backs on your children Children don't you leave the family Ain't no point in livin' life all by yourself So why can't we just find a way to (ooh) stay together Chorus repeats 2x Let's stay together (repeats)
