"Out On Our Own" lyrics

"Out On Our Own"

Yes, the world could sing my song
But would have to learn yours
We could rehearse in our room
And then go out on tour
If I expect less, I get more
If I ask for more, I get less than I had before
We don't have to talk, we're just reading each other's thoughts

We can talk about your dreams, I spoke about mine
We were turning the pages and following the rhyme
I wouldn't want to take up too much of your time
But every song I write deserves a rhyme

We are sarcastic
And so romantic
Now we have grown
Out on our own
Out on our own
Out on our own
If we're meant to be then
It's such a relief

No genie in the lamp to rub
No tarot in the deck to pull
No mirrors left for me to smash
How were we to know?
No needle in the hay to find
No mountain left for us to climb
No cigarettes for me to stub
How were we to know?

Now we have grown
Out on our own
Out on our own
Out on our own
If we're meant to be then
If we're meant to be then
If we're meant to be then
If we're meant to be then
If we're meant to be then
It's such a relief
It's such a relief
