TREAT IT RIGHT

Pave your life with trust

Leave no chips or cracks

Don’t you ever abuse it

There’s no way to get it back

Total honesty

No little white lies

Gives the clearest reflection

To your true love’s searching eyes

You don’t skip any steps

When you build a house

Use the same plan with your love

It’s easy to figure out

~~~*Chorus*~~~

You can rub two sticks together

And still not create a fire

You don’t want to cross the country

If you don’t have the proper tires

If you don’t work, you cannot buy

What you need to survive

But love can endure forever

If two people treat it right

~~*~~

Don’t kill the passion

Take care of yourself

The can with the best wrapper

Is the first one off the shelf

Make sure what’s inside

Is always kept sweet

You need the total package

It will make your choice complete

You don’t eat your meal

Without silverware

Make sure the table’s set right

For the fare that you’ve prepared

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~

We all know that every road isn’t smooth

There are flaws

Sometimes it just depends on how you drive

To get to your destination

Without ever breaking down

Make sure you have chosen the best ride

That you treat it right

For all your life

~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~

You can rub two sticks together

And still not create a fire

You don’t want to cross the country

If you don’t have the proper tires

If you don’t work, you cannot buy

What you need to survive

But love can endure forever

If two people treat it right

~~*~~
