[Chorus: The O'Jays]
You and me, we can make it last
You and me must forget the past
You and me, we can build
A brand new life together, oh

[Verse 1: Eddie Levert]
I know your heart has been broken
In pieces, pieces and pieces before
Baby, and you swore to never, never
Never love another man, another man anymore

[Pre-Chorus: Eddie Levert]
Baby, don't blame me for the things that he did
That he did to make you feel this way (Make you feel this way)
Can you find it in your heart
Baby, please, baby, please, oh, put your trust in me
(Put your trust in me)
It may seem hard sometimes
But we can make it through
I'm counting on you

[Chorus: The O'Jays]
You and me, we can make it last (Oh sugar)
You and me must forget the past
You and me, we can build
A brand new life together, oh
[Verse 2: Eddie Levert]
I hope you don't mind me putting, putting
Putting pressure, pressure, pressure on you
But my love is so strong, let nobody, nobody
Tell you, tell you that we're wrong

[Pre-Chorus: Eddie Levert]
'Cause laying close to you, late at night, late at night
Late at night is all I wanna do, all I wanna do (All I wanna do)
If I only had one wish, I would wish, I would wish
Baby, that I could have you (That I could have you)
It may seem hard sometimes
But we can make it through
Oh, I'm counting on you

[Chorus: The O'Jays]
It's you and me, we can make it last
You and me must forget the past
It's you and me
No, no, no, no, you and me

[Bridge: Eddie Levert & (The O'Jays)]
Forget all about the bad times
From right now, from this moment on, gonna be
(It's you and me now, me now, me now)
I said, right now it's gonna be
(It's you and me now, me now, me now)
Gonna spend, gonna spend the rest of my life
(It's you and me now, me now, me now, me now)
I said, it's you and me now, me now, me now
(It's you and me now, me now, me now, me now)
[Outro]
Oh, you and me, we can make it last
You and me must forget the past
You and me, we can make it last
You and me must forget the past
It's you and me
