"You And I Both" lyrics

"You And I Both"

You and I both know
The way the wind blows
The way the stream goes
And it goes

You and I both speak
Different language
They can't hear us
They can't hear

You and I both feel
With our fingers
Understanding
Understand

You and I survive
In the ether
They can't reach us
They can't reach

Your mother was a weathered shore
She gathered all one ocean could
I see you give
And take it all
Sailing by as driftwood
But you couldn't cry in childhood

You and I both live
On a feather
You can't catch her
You can't catch

You and I are scared
Of the future
But we don't know her
And we don't know
