(nickolas ashford/valerie simpson)



Every star has a twinkle

Every palm has a wrinkle

Every leaf comes from a tree

I would agree



So if everything is made up of two

And the sky really needs the blue

For my other half

I'll settle for you



Every future has a past

Every first has a last

Every night has a day

Come what may



So if everything is made up of two

Whether it be old or new

For my other half

I'll settle for you



Who wants to be like a sea without a shore

The love just drifting forever more

Every smile has a frown

All you gotta do is turn it upside down

Every house has a door

Of that i'm sure



So if everything is made up of two

I think it would be best if you know

For my other half

I'll settle for you

Don't you know, i'll settle for you

I'll settle for you

If i had to settle, baby

I'll settle for you

Don't you know, i'll settle for you
