Giving it up is easy,
Give it up and throw it all away
If making it work ain't working,
Tell me quick so baby I don't stay
Nothing like this is easy,
How we gonna make it through the day
If talking becomes a minefield
Well, let us run and blow it all away.

Chorus:
How my gonna get it through to your heart and your head?
That I'm always, I'll be there
Every single time you need a man and a friend
Always!

Breaking a heart is easy,
Don't let it break and hide it all away.
If holding the pain keeps hurting,
Baby, won't you scream it all away.
Nothing becomes a nightmare,
If everything is brighter than the day
If you can't be alone now,
Well, tell me girl and baby I will stay!

Chorus:
How my gonna get it through to your heart and your head?
That I'm always, I'll be there
Every single time you need a man and a friend
Always!

Everything is easy when
The love you have is realer than
The time we spend
On things that just don't matter when you're gone!
Everything is easy when
The love you have is realer than
The time we spend
On things that just don't matter when you're gone!
On things that just don't matter when you're gone!
When you're gone!

Giving it up is easy,
Give it up and throw it all away!
If making it work ain't working,
tell me quick so baby, I don't stay
Nothing becomes a nightmare if everything is brighter than the day
If you can't be alone now,
Tell me girl and baby I will stay

Chorus: (x2)
How my gonna get it through to your heart and your head?
That I'm always, I'll be there
Every single time you need a man and a friend
Always!
