      The mainstream wouldn't want the song promoted too much. It would keep too many couples together among R&B listeners. The current policy is to promote casual sex, excessive materialism and being unconnected to one another.

This song, so beautifully sung, was so touching to me and gave me a little hope. Here I am a year and some later, and I still love this song. More importantly, God blessed us with a chance for our marriage. I just wanted to share.

    I listen to this song several times out of my week. I let it repeat for hours. I fell in love, it's subtle reminder of how things can change. However, when two friends have the genuine love between them, it's totally worth it to apologize and work towards better days ahead. This song speaks life to me!!!!!!!!!! I love all of his songs!!!!. This one is at the top of my list!!!

    How did we ever lose our minds?
    And fall apart, knowing we're the only ones
    To heal each others' hearts
    Bring your love on back to me
    Stop this insanity
    Before we go too far
    How did we ever lose our way?
    And try to say love is a losing game
    Should've never tried to play
    Bring your love on back to me
    Stop this insanity
    Before we go too far
    We were lovers
    And the best of friends
    And I hope, I hope that we can be that
    Until the end
    Sometimes the lover
    Can be angry 'till the end
    But it's always the friend inside
    That will make amends
    How did we ever lose our way?
    And try to say love is a losing game
    We will never be the same
    Bring your love on back to me
    Stop this insanity
    Before we go too far
    We were lovers
    And the best of friends
    And I know that we can be that
    Be that 'till the end
    Sometimes the lover
    Can be angry 'till the end
    But it's always the friend inside
    That will make amends
    How did we ever lose our way?
    And start to say love is a losing game
    We will never feel the same
    Bring your love on back to me
    Stop this insanity
    Before we go too far
    Before we go too far
    Before we go too far
    Before we go too far

    Why do I like jazz? There are four major elements in music: melody, harmony, tone and rhythm. Harmony is just as important as melody to a jazz musician. Tone is the sound quality of the different instruments used in music.And then there’s rhythm. Rhythm is the element that distinguish one music style from the other. Jazz is all about improvisation whilst sounding absolutely beautiful, it’s about musicians being absolute masters with their respective instruments. So there you have it, that’s why I like jazz.
