Now Is The Time

(albüm: This Is Brook Benton - 1976)

I'm tired of pretending
That I'm just, just a friend
You promised that you would leave him
But you didn't say when
Because you didn't want to hurt him
You needed a little time
To let him down
And then you'd be mine
But baby, I've been waiting too long
So leave him
Let him know you are my own

Now is the time
You got to let him know
Now is the time
You got to let him go
Now is the time
To tell him you don't want him anymore
No more, no more, no more

I've waited very patiently
I've been more, way more than fair
But darling, there's a limit
To what I can bear
Because I don't like lying and cheating
I want you all alone
Let's stop this masquerade
We both know it's wrong
So baby, won't you tell him goodbye
I'm tired of living a lie

Now is the time
You got to let him know
Now is the time
You got to let him go
Now is the time
To tell him you don't want him anymore
No more, no more, no more

Ooh, now is the time
You got to let him know
Now, now is the time
You got to let him go
Now is the time
To tell him you don't want him anymore
Baby, now is the time
You got to let him know
Now is the time
You got to let him go
Now is the time
To tell him you don't want him anymore
Baby, now is the time
You got to let him know
Now is the time
You got to let him go
Now is the time
To tell him you don't want him anymore
