You Do Or You Don't - Emerson, Lake & Palmer

YOU DO OR YOU DON'T
(Robert Berry)

Have we been pretending we live this street life
Ones the tough ones thinking now we've grown
You say the feelings are changing now with every night
Don't know where a lonely rebel goes
On the other side you found something different
The other side of life you say you've never known

But either you do or you don't, girl, can't you tell me?
Either you will or you won't, gotta make up your mind
You either go or you stay, there ain't no pretending
We've gotta do it together and keep our love alive

Keep turning back the pages, pictures of a time that kept us strong
Pieces of a life that we gave meaning
How can you wonder if those days are gone
But the other side you heard the minds rest easy
The other side of life you say you need to know

But either you do or you don't, girl, can't you tell me?
Either you will or you won't, gotta make up your mind
You either go or you stay, there ain't no pretending
We've gotta do it together and keep our love alive

Can you just give up what your heart still tells you
Oh, the very things that kept our hopes alive
But the other side you say that we could make it
Oh, the other side of life will keep us both alive

Oh but either you do or you don't, girl, can't you tell me?
Either you will or you won't, gotta make up your mind
You either go or you stay, there ain't no pretending
We've gotta do it together and keep our love alive
Oh but either you do or you don't, girl, can't you tell me?
Either you will or you won't, girl gotta make up your mind
You either go or you stay, there ain't no pretending
We've gotta do it together and keep our love alive, oh, oh, oh
