You and me forever
|
We belong together
|
And we'll always endeavor
|
Throughout any type of weather
|
|
You want everything to be just like
|
The stories that you read but never write
|
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
|
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
|
Or you'll get burned
|
|
You wrote our names down on the sidewalk
|
The rain came and washed 'em off
|
So we should write 'em again on wet cement
|
So maybe people a long time from now will know what we meant
|
|
You want every morning to be just like
|
The stories that you read but never write
|
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
|
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
|
My only concern
|
|
I'm adding something new to the mixture
|
So there's a different hue to your picture
|
A different ending to this fairytale
|
When the sunset into which we sail
|
|
You want everything to be just like
|
The stories that you read but you can't write
|
You gotta learn to live and live and learn
|
You gotta learn to give and wait your turn
|
Or you'll get burned
|
