It's a fragile situation It could fall apart at any time And none would be the wiser Except you and I It seems that we stopped talkin' Like we're afraid to disagree And after all we've been through Can we still be that naive? [Chorus] If your heart isn't in it Why can't you tell me so? If my heart wasn't in it I'd have gone long ago If your heart isn't in it Why keep me hangin' on? Just tell me and I'll be gone From your life You treat me like a stranger As if I wasn't there Oh baby, I waited for a miracle To make you show that you care [Chorus] If your heart isn't in it Why can't you tell me so? I can't go through the motions I have to know If your heart isn't in it Why can't you tell me so? I can't go to the limit I have to know If your heart Ooh, can't you tell me so? I have to know If your heart isn't it Why keep me hangin' on? Just tell me and I'll be gone Don't keep me hangin' on For dear life
