"You And Me" lyrics

"You And Me"

Take a walk now, sleepy eyes
There's no need to put your makeup on
Dreaming down stairways
In your spring morning sky
In your own dimension
Somewhere between space and time

Love's all it takes
Till something breaks

If I could buy some time to write this letter
Lost in a swan song, nothing lasts forever
I never thought the sun could rise
Through all the change that grabbed me by surprise
But I always thought it'd end up you and me

Help me with this costume, where's my cape?
Sew me up a mask so I don't have to reveal my face
All of the kid stuff you outgrew that I am trying hard to disguise
All the weakest things about me
I pretend that I don't want you to find

Love's all it takes
Take a walk with sleepy eyes
Till something breaks
Stairways falling in your mind
Nothing to disguise
Worlds away when your heart aches

If I could buy some time to write this letter
Lost in a swan song, nothing lasts forever
I never thought the sun could rise
I never saw the change before my eyes
But I always thought it'd end up you and me

If I could buy some time, I'd lock up the day
Lost in a swan song dreaming down the stairway
I never thought the sun could rise
Through all the change that grabbed me by surprise

I never thought the sun would rise
Wipe the sleep out of your tired eyes

I never thought the sun could shine
On all the change, the world was rushing by
But I always thought it, always thought
A Life & Times, just wait and see
But I always thought it'd end up you and me

You and me
