We both ran our race, yeah
And came in second place, oh
Think I need some space, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
I got a taste for it (Oh-oh)

I know I'm sounding conceited
Can't explain why I'm leaving
Bittersweet but I need it
Right now, now-now, now-now
No, I hate what I'm feeling
I can't even imagine
What it's like on the receiving end, oh

Haffi do this ting my way
My way
My way
Haffi do this ting my way
My way
My way
On a selfish ting these days
These days
These days, oh
I need positive vibrations only

Po-po-po-po, positive vibrations
Po-po-po-po, positive

Why is this so hard? You don't want to fight all the time
I don't know, that's awful
Do you ever miss when we're just friends, just
And there wasn't this pressure to be together, to be
Different people
Yes, be different people
Are we?
No, I love you!
I love you too!
More than I've ever loved anybody
But what if that's the only thing we have in common?

If you don't love me the way you say it
Cos I been thinking and overthinking
bout how I'm vulnerable With you I feel naked
And I pretend I don't understand the risk and the implications
Of falling in love with a real one
Ride or die
She saying
Might have to kill someone
They say that loving is easy
Well what's the deal
Jarreau tell them how you feel

I know I'm sounding conceited (Oh, oh)
Can't explain why I'm leaving
Bittersweet but I need it
Right now, now-now, now-now
No, I hate what I'm feeling
I can't even imagine
What it's like on the receiving end, oh

Haffi do this ting my way
My way
My way
Haffi do this ting my way
My way
My way
On a selfish ting these days
These days
These days, oh
I need positive vibrations only

My way
My way
My way
Haffi do this ting my way
My way
My way
On a selfish ting these days
These days
These days, oh
I need positive vibrations only

Po-po-po-po, positive vibrations
Po-po-po-po, positive vibrations
Po-po-po-po, positive vibrations
Po-po-po-po, positive
