We've Got to Stop (Meeting Like This)

You know, baby

We go back a long way

It hasn't always been easy, you know

I mean, you living on the East Coast

Me living on the West Coast

It's tearing me apart

We've got to stop meeting like this

Try to understand

When I say how much I care

It hurts me so inside, each time we say goodbye

And it's so unfair

And I've cried, yes, I've cried

As I face my calendar

I mark red Xs off, and with each tear that drops

Baby, it gets harder to bear

'Cause your love could send a rocket up to the moon

Your love hit me just like a lead balloon

So let's make a wish

Seal it with a kiss, my baby

You know we've got to stop meeting like this

Try to understand

Our long distance love affair has gotten out of hand

It's more than I can stand

Ooh, girl, this I swear

And it hurts, yes, it hurts, baby

As I face my calendar

I mark red Xs off, and with each tear that drops

Baby, it gets harder to bear

Your love could send a rocket up to the moon

Your love hit me just like a lead balloon

So let's make a wish

Seal it with a kiss, my baby, yeah

You know we've got to stop meeting like this

Can you find a way to say goodbye without really saying goodbye?

(Can you make it easier on me? Can you stop these tears I cry?)

Baby, I can only try

(Can you find a reason why love shouldn't die?)

I hear what you're saying

And my love will be waiting

I hear (I hear) what you're saying

And my love will be here after your other lovers fall

If you'll only stop, ooh, meeting like this, baby

You know we've got to stop, my love

This hurting in our hearts, my love

I've been blind, so blind, so blind, baby

Time after time

(You know we've got to stop it, baby, yeah)

Know we've got to stop, my baby

I've been going crazy, out of my mind

Time after time, yeah, baby
