Words and Music by Maurice White, Verdine White, Fred White, Larry Dunn, Philip Bailey & Al McKay

Hey, we heard the news that someone's crying the blues
'Cause words still go unsaid as hungry minds are never fed


Take a chance as you dance in romance
In a trance to advance and expand
Got a dime and a rhyme brilliant mind
Still inclined in your prime to design


For man's great strength to meet another trembling heart's defeat
Is read between the lines when change of mind is hard to find


The blossoms that you reap from binding challenges complete
And wisdom's gentle rain imensely crowns your brain


Take a chance as you dance in romance
In a trance to advance and expand
Moving soon upper room
Paid your dues 'cause you're through feelin' blue


Take a chance as you dance in romance
In a trance to advance and expand
Got a dime and a rhyme brilliant mind
Still inclined in your prime to design
Moving soon upper room
Paid your dues 'cause you're through feelin' blue
