Just Let It Slide

(album: Rose Colored Glasses - 1978)

I don't even know what started the fight we just had
One minute we're happy, next minute we're both fighting mad

And what does it get us outsides of this hurting inside
'Cause we're not forgiving, we're never willing to listen and just let it slide

Wild accusations lead us to a quarrel every time
And then comes that game of who's right and who's wrong (and am I)

When the trigger of temper is pulled by the finger of pride
Baby, let's be forgiving and try to be willing to listen and just let it slide

Just think of the time we've already wasted on hate
And count off the hours when love had to stand back and wait

Then the next time our anger puts us on opposite sides
Baby, let's be forgiving and try to be willing to listen and just let it slide

Wild accusations lead us to a quarrel every time
And then comes that game of who's right and who's wrong (and am I)

When the trigger of temper is pulled by the finger of pride
Baby, let's be forgiving and try to be willing to listen and just let it slide

Baby, let's be forgiving and try to be willing to listen and just let it slide
