They say nothing's gonna last forever But some things are worth fighting for Yeah, well love could bring us back together But love don't come round here no more
The words unspoken in the night Locked away in my heart And I'm feeling out of place But if love is the key Let it open the door So we'll be standing -- face to face
You never want to see me face to face Think it over Face to face If only it could be just face to face
Baby you and me Face to face
I may be better off without it I can't go on this way Time has come to talk about it This is our judgement day
You know we swore it would last forever Always felt so sure it would But it's looking like now or never Time to turn a bad thing into good
The words that echo in the night They're fading away And they're gone without a trace Now it's up to you and me Let's open the door And meet each other -- face to face
It's time we saw each other face to face To talk it over Face to face You know it's gotta be just face to face Baby you and me Face to face
We gotta see each other -- face to face And talk about it Face to face Hope it ain't too late to meet face to face Just you and me [solo]
Face to Face It's time we saw each other face to face To talk it over Face to face You know it's gotta be just face to face Baby you and me
Face to face We gotta see each other face to face And talk about it Face to face I hope it ain't too late to meet Face to face Don't turn your back on me Face to face It's time we saw each other Face to face To talk it over
