We've both been waiting, waiting so long
Girl, in every conversation the same old song
But for all the reasons in this world
Got a secret baby, we still got the time

[Chorus]
There's no sense in making promises
Promises that we just can't keep
There's no sense in all these promises
Promises that we just can't keep, yeah

I close my eyes and I feel the pain
It's so plain to see girl, you're hurting just like me
Girl it takes two to make this love go round
And this love so full of ups and downs

[Chorus x2]
Makes no sense, makes no sens
But for all the reasons in this world
We gotta take it baby, one step at a time, yeah

[Chorus]
Makes no sense, makes no sense, makes no sense
One more try, makes no sense
