Making Your Mind Up Lyrics

[Chorus]
You gotta speed it up and then you gotta slow it down
'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top you gotta play around
But soon you will find that there comes a time
For making your mind up

[Verse 1]
You gotta turn it on and then you gotta put it out
You gotta be sure that it's something everybody's gonna talk about
Before you decide that the times arrived
For making your mind up

[Refrain]
Don't let your indecision take you from behind
Trust your inner vision
Don't let others change your mind

[Verse 2]
And then you really gotta burn it up and make another fly by night
Get a run for your money and take a chance and it'll turn out right
And when you can see how it's gotta be
You're making your mind up

[Verse 3]
And try to look as if you don't care less but if you want to see some more
Bending the rules of the game will let you find the one you're looking for
And then you can show that you think you know
You're making your mind up
[Refrain]
Don't let your indecision, take you from behind
Trust your inner vision
Don't let others change your mind

[Chorus]
You gotta speed it up and then you gotta slow it down
'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top you gotta play around
But soon you will find that there comes a time
For making your mind up
You gotta speed it up and then you gotta slow it down
'Cause if you believe that our love can hit the top you gotta play around
But soon you will find that there comes a time
For making your mind up
For making your mind up
For making your mind up
For making your mind up

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
