Lyrics

[Chorus]
Two divided by love
Can only be one
And one is a lonely number
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only hurt one another, baby
[Verse 1]
Every night your tears come down
And I know how you're feelin' inside
Loneliness is no one's friend
I've been takin' the same kind of ride
And that just shouldn't be
If you're still lovin' me
Come on, baby
[Chorus]
Two divided by love
Can only be one
And one is a lonely number
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only hurt one another
[Verse 2]
I'd by lyin' to myself
If I said I was gettin' along
All I do is think of you
And I know that it's here you belong
Come on, girl, make your way
We can start from today
Puttin' it back together 'cause
[Chorus]
Two divided by love
Can only be one
And one is a lonely number
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only hurt one another
[Bridge]
Take away the rain from a flower
And the flower just can't grow
Take away you from me, girl
And out of my mind, I slowly go
Out of my mind
Out of my mind, out of my mind
Slowly go
[Chorus]
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
So sad
Can only be broken hearted
Broken hearted
Two divided and blue
Should take what they had
Take what you had and go right back where you
And go back to where they started
[Chorus]
Two divided by love
Started, babe, only
Can only be one
One
And one is a lonely number
Two divided by love
Can only be sad
Can only hurt one–
