Just the Two of Us
Grover Washington Jr. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see the crystal raindrops fall
And the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through
To make those rainbows in my mind
When I think of you sometime
And I wanna spend some time with you

Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I

We look for love, no time for tears
Wasted water's all that is
And it don't make no flowers grow
Good things might come to those who wait
Not for those who wait too late
We gotta go for all we know

Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building them castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I

I hear the crystal raindrops fall
On the window down the hall
And it becomes the morning dew
And darling when the morning comes
And I see the morning sun
I wanna be the one with you

Just the two of us
We can make it if we try
Just the two of us
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
Building big castles way on high
Just the two of us
You and I

@Ravagaj86

I've listened to this song for years. Been singing this to my best mate's cat for quite some time... usually when I cat sit lol...

Normally singing this with joy but today it brings tears as I have to say my goodbyes today.

She will be very missed by myself as I know she chose me... not the other way round. Which makes it even more special.

I will see her again one day when my time comes but I will always remember the times she celebrated with me, and comforted me in my time of need.

Love you Bonnie. You will always be an amazing cat and I'm proud, privileged and honoured to have had you in my life you special girl. Much love always Bons xx
