You and I

© 1978 by Jim Andris

I.

You and I, we've got something going.
We like each other, and it's really showing;
My feelings for you are strong.

You and I, we're like a couple of birds,
Flying high above a sea of words;
Our harmony makes a song.

People might think that we've flipped our lids,
Skipping and running like a couple of kids.
Well, the rain may come our way,
But our sunny laughter brightens up the dreary day.

You and I, we've got summer skies.
We've got a shoulder when the other one cries.
We've got a smoldering fire that won't go out;
I'm going to stand right up and shout:
You and I, You and I, we've got a good thing going.

II.

You and I, we've got it awful nice,
Returning from a trip to paradise.
I'm loving you more each day.

You and I, we read each other's minds.
A better friendship would be hard to find.
You've taken my cares away.

Living with you just seems so right—
I break out laughing in the middle of the night.
The love you give to me
Is a model of the way I always want to be.

You and I we've got winter nights,
A roaring fire and some candle light.
We've got the gentlest love that could exist,
And that's the reason I insist:
You and I, You and I, we've got a good thing going.
