CHORUS:
What's the use in breakin' up
When you just turn around & make up?

Oh you say you're tired & you're uninspired
& you wanna leave me, oh baby
The last time you felt that way
Girl, you left me for a whole day
Then you called me on the telephone (hey baby)
In your sweet & your softest tone (hey baby)
Askin' me "What should we do?"
When you know all the time that I'm crazy about you

CHORUS:
What's the use in breakin' up
When you just turn around & make up?
What's the use in breakin' up
When you just turn around & make up?

We had the same conversation
Well it couldn't have been more than a week ago
I said "Darlin', you're breakin' my heart
& I don't see how I can take much more"
I got up & walked out of the door (hey baby)
Walked on down to the corner store (hey baby)
& by the time what I said took in
I turned right around & came back again

CHORUS:
What's the use in breakin' up
When you just turn around & make up?
What's the use in breakin' up
When you just turn around & make up?

Girl, I guess we do it 'cause it's such a groove (hey baby)
To find somethin' that you need to use (hey baby)
Oh baby, I love you, I swear
& ain't neither one of us goin' nowhere

CHORUS:
What's the use in breakin' up
When you just turn around & make up?
What's the use in breakin' up
When you just turn around & make up?

You know that you & I both started
& if we break up we will be broken hearted
Let on I've always loved you
& I think the whole world of you
