We chose to live with each other
Be independent, too
All the years I have known you
I can depend on you
One thing I'm asking
Don't turn your back on me

I never said I was perfect
No-one can make that claim
So when we disagree, baby
We got to share the blame
One thing I'm asking
Don't turn your back on me

Sometimes we try too hard
To guess each other's ways
Don't mean to hurt your feelings
This love is such a craze
No matter what the reason
Don't turn your back on me

Most everything you do
Is from a loving place
I got a promise for you, baby
I tell you to your face
I'm in it for the long haul
I'll never turn my back on you
