Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sooner or later you're gonna come around
You think about this love, you turn it down
Sooner or later you got to settle down
You think about this love, you turn it down

Sooner or later

Hey, girl, tell me why
You keep me at a distance all the time
We can touch the sky
If you would only let your heart be your guide

No, girl, you can't say it doesn't matter
We both know it isn't true
If we could get together
Then you'll see
I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who needs you

Sooner or later you got to come around
You think about this love that you're turnin' down
Sooner or later you got to settle down
You think about this love that you're turnin' down
Sooner or later

Let mine be the arms
That you run to when you need someone
If you trust in me
You'll see the love I offer guarantee

No, girl, you can't say it doesn't matter
We both know it isn't true
If we could get together
Then you'll see
I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who needs you

Sooner or later you got to come around
You think about this love that you're turnin' down
Sooner or later you got to settle down
You think about this love that you're turnin' down
Sooner or later
Sooner or later

No, girl, you can't say it doesn't matter
We both know it isn't true
If we could get together
Then you'll see
I'm the one who loves you
I'm the one who needs you

Sooner or later you got to come around
You think about the love, think about the love you been turnin' down
Sooner or later you got to settle down
And think about the love, think about the love you been turnin' down
