What About You and Me

Like a slow, sad river,

all the tears you ever took from me.

And you'll take one more,

it falls so easily

after all these years.

I can't remember 

ever thinkin' it would come to this.

Did we fall so far?

Did you fall away from me?

You were everything I thought that love could be.

What about you and me?

When I look at us now,

I'll be saying, 

"How can love be strong

if the two of us can't make it?"

When I look at us now, 

I'll be screaming,

"Love's just a fantasy,

oh, can't you see?

Only you can prove me wrong."

One more phone call

from a friend who can't believe his ears.

He says, "No, not you, not the king and queen.

You were everything they thought that love could be."

What about you and me?

When I look at us now,

I'll be saying, 

"How can love be strong  

if the two of us can't make it?"

When I look at us now, 

I'll be screaming,

"Love's just a fantasy,

oh, can't you see?

Only you can prove me wrong."

Did we fall so far?

Did you fall away from me?

You were everything I thought that love could be.

What about you and me?

When I look at us now,

I'll be saying, 

"How can love be strong

if the two of us can't make it?"

When I look at us now, 

I'll be screaming,

"Love's just a fantasy,

oh, can't you see?

Only you can prove me wrong."

(When I look at us now...)

What about you and me?

(When I look at us now...)

Oh, what about you and me?

(When I look at us now...)  

What about you and me?

(When I look at us now...)
