[Verse 1]
|
If my house flowed down in the river
|
If all of these walls tumble down in the storm
|
If this war took all of my money
|
All of my pride
|
But I'd never be poor
|
|
[Pre-Chorus]
|
As long as we got each other
|
There's nothing in the world that can steal my joy
|
Yeah, As long as we got each other
|
We can overcome the badness of the world
|
|
[Chorus]
|
'Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to
|
But I know if I got one thing
|
Baby I know got you
|
Yeah, you keep me sheltered through the six o'clock blues
|
And if I know one things going to be alright
|
Then I know that it's me and you (oh, oh)
|
|
[Bridge]
|
So they say we're running out of time
|
We're running out of water
|
We're running out of light
|
We all got to many problems
|
And just not enough answers
|
But if we keep our own lives then they'll tell us what we like
|
|
[Pre-Chorus]
|
Oh, but as long as we got each other
|
There's nothing in the world that can steal my joy
|
As long as we got each other (we can overcome)
|
We can overcome the badness of the world
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
They can sell me a story
|
And tell me we're in danger
|
But our love will never die
|
|
[Chorus]
|
'Cause people don't make the world go round like they used to
|
But I know if I got one thing
|
Baby I know got you
|
You keep me sheltered through the six o'clock blues
|
Yeah, you keep me sheltered
|
Through the six o'clock
|
Yeah you keep me sheltered, sheltered, sheltered, sheltered
|
Baby if I know one thing
|
It's going to be all right
|
I know that I got my baby
|
Like the birds that live in the sky
|
We never have to worry
|
Cause somehow we'll get by
|
