lyrics

You and I, got a good thing going on.
It’s something you can’t put your finger on.
Does it remind you of a feeling?
The mystery and the danger that comes with love?

We dragged those formative years out, learning everything and nothing at all.
It was a matter of convenience.
A stone’s throw was the distance from my house to yours.

When all the cards were down, what you and I were looking for was just a better hand to hold.
What we were always striving toward was this need to belong but I can’t be yours.

You and I, had a good thing going on but were both a little tired of putting each other on.
When all our kids have grown, built houses they call home and grew families of their own.

I’ve seen love ruin.
I’ve seen love saved.
How much of this love is lost in waiting?
