[Verse 1: Wayne Lewis, Barbara Weathers, Both]
It's a fragile situation
It could fall apart at any time
And none would be the wiser
'Cept you and I

It seems that we stopped talking
Like we're afraid to disagree, oh
And after all we've been through
Can we still be that naive? Hey

[Chorus: Wayne & Barbara]
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 (Long ago)
If your heart isn't in it
Why keep me hanging on? (Hanging on)
Just tell me and I'll be gone
From your life

[Verse 2: Wayne, Barbara, Both]
You treat me like a stranger
As if I wasn't there
Ah baby, I waited for a miracle
To make you show that you care
Hey, yeah
[Chorus: Wayne & Barbara]
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 (Long ago)
If your heart isn't in it
Why keep me hanging on? (Hanging on)
Just tell me and I'll be gone
From your life

[Outro: Wayne & Barbara, Barbara]
If your heart isn't in it
Why can't you tell me so?
(Why can't you tell me so?)
I can't go through the motions
I have to know (Have to know)
If your heart isn't in it
Why can't you tell me so?
(Why can't you tell me so?)
I can't go to the limit
I have to know (Have to know)
If your heart...
Ooh, can't you tell me so?
I have to know (Have to know)
If your heart isn't it
Why keep me hanging on? (Hanging on)
Just tell me and I'll be gone (I'll be gone)
Don't keep me hanging on
For dear life
