You And I
This I know.
It’s very clear.
I am happy
when you’re near.
I can’t wait
till the day.
You say you’re mine.
We’re on our way.
Just a little time to call our own.
Before too long, we’ll buy a home.
Then we will have a child or two.
At least one, I’ll name after you.
Before long will come the day.
When we’ll both say it’s o.k.
When you’re near
I’m on cloud nine.
I don’t care
If it’s all the time.
When I try
to think it through.
Every thing
ends with you.
Just a little time to call our own.
Before too long, we’ll buy a home.
Then we’ll have a child or two.
At least one, I’ll name after you.
Before long will come the day.
When we’ll both say it’s o.k.
