What if I made some time to listen to you?
What if you made some time to hear me too?
What if we took the time to realize
Givin' some love is givin' compromise?

What if I could show you that my love is true?
Without all these changes we've be going through
What if we learned to play it by the rules?

What if we was cool, cool?
Wasn't acting like fools, fools
What if we was cool, cool
Wouldn't that be?

What if we tried something not tried before?
What if we let love open up the door?
What if we set some goals but not too high?
What if we both agreed to really try?

What if we knew that we could disagree
But still made love the first priority?
Show me love like you're suppose to do

What if we was cool, cool?
Wasn't acting like fools, fools
What if we was cool, cool
Wouldn't that be?

Do you hear me, baby?
'Cause the love is fading
Can I get the message through to you?
I'm someone to love

What if we had equality for all men?
What if we forgot all our forefather sins?
What if you forgot the color of my skin?
What if you could wear the skin, I'm in?

What if we knew that we could disagree?
But still make love the first priority
Show me love like you're suppose to do

What if we was cool, cool?
Wasn't acting like fools, fools
What if we was cool, cool
Wouldn't that be?

Do you hear me, baby?
'Cause the love is fading
Can I get the message through to you?
Can we keep this thing cool?

A lot of love we're needing
I'm ready and I'm willing
Don't you know that I still think of you?
As someone to love

What if we was cool, cool?
Wasn't acting like fools, fools
What if we was cool, cool
Wouldn't that be?

What if we was cool, cool?
Wasn't acting like fools, fools
What if we was cool, cool
Wouldn't that be cool?

What if we was cool, cool?
