You and I were finished,
I was through with you.
Splitting up forever
Seemed the thing to do.
I said, I can’t stand you
With your honey touch,
This time you were cheating me,
One time too much.
Just then I remembered,
That a friend I knew
Told me one thing,
I should never do.
Chorus:
Never, never change your lovers
In the middle of the night,
Everything may look so different
In the early morning light.
Never, never be too hasty
When you’re groping in the dark.
What you’re getting into may be
Just a lark.
Keep your cool and don’t change lovers
When you’re feeling sorta high,
Sorta big and high and mighty
Without really knowing why.
Let the heat wear off a little,
Give your man another chance
And don’t fall for someone else’s
Song and dance.
Sure, there was this guy
Right next to me,
Mine just for the asking,
He said he would be.
But to leave my man
Seemed to me all too strange,
And I’d say that I’m glad,
I didn’t make the change.
Now our life is almost
Like a Paradise,
Let me pass on to you
This advice.
Chorus:
Keep your cool and don’t change lovers
In the middle of the night,
You may feel a strong temptation,
The vibrations may be right.
But who knows what’s gonna happen,
You may simply lose your cool
When you find it, you’ll find out
You were a fool.
Never, never change your lovers
Under any midnight spell.
Take it easy, slow and easy,
Everything will turn out well.
Let the sunshine of a new day,
And don’t move while you’re uptight
Changing lovers in the middle of the night.
Never, never change your lovers
In the middle of the night,
Everything may look so different
In the early morning light.
Never, never be too hasty
When you’re groping in the dark.
What you’re getting into may be
Just a lark.
Keep your cool and don’t change lovers
When you’re feeling sorta high,
Sorta big and high and mighty
Without really knowing why.
Let the heat wear off a little,
Give your man another chance
And don’t fall for someone else’s
Song and dance.
