Natalie Cole: Split Decision

(Words and music by Burt Bacharach & Carole Bayer Sager)
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Oh, yeah
Doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Mm, hmm
Who's gonna take the blame tomorrow
If we break up tonight
If we break up
Who's gonna stop this stupid war
That nobody's gonna win
The jury's still out on us
Split decision, split in two
By the things that came between us
So unimportant now
All of those fights
Why do we always hurt the ones
We care the most about
The jury's still out on us
Split decision, split in two
By the things that happened
And the dreams that came apart
Do you still want me in your life
I need to know so tell me
Can we still make it in this life
Or is it too late for us
How long is time about to wait
Oh, oh, oh, oh
-Musical Interlude-
Hoo--
Who's gonna say they're sorry first
And put this hurt away
The jury's still out on us
Split decision
Split in
It's not so easy putting back the pieces
Of a broken heart
Getting back where we started
Oh, no, oh, no
It's not so easy picking up the pieces
Of a broken heart
And get it back (get it back)
Get it back (where we started) where we started
Oh, oh, oh, no but if we hold on
(But if we hold on) we (we can try to make it)
Can try to make it
(Maybe mend this heart) and get it back
(Get it back where we started) where we started
Oh, oh, oh (it's not so easy) it's not so easy
picking up (picking up the pieces) the iddy bitty pieces
(Of a broken heart)
Get it back (get it back where we started)
Get it back where we started
But if we hold on (if we hold on)
We're (we can try to make it) gonna make it
(Maybe mend this heart)
Get it back where we started...
