You And Me
Elizabeth & The Catapult Lyrics

Just look at me as if for the first time
Forget everything you think you know about me and see me with fresh eyes.

I'm not leaving until you let me in
I won't give up on trying to connect with you until you open up to me.

I'm dressed like a present that's no longer wanted
I'm putting myself out there for you, hoping you'll accept me, even though I may not be exactly what you're looking for.

A face full of blush and I'm brokenhearted for you. Ohhh
My emotions are on full display and I'm falling for you even though I know it may lead to heartbreak.

And take me on like we're just beginning
Let's approach our relationship with the excitement and passion of a new romance.

No no no don't be cruel, I want to take my bidding
Don't reject me outright, I want to have a say in the way our relationship develops.

I'll ask for a smoke and then I'll take it back
I may make requests of you but I'm not always certain of what I want or need.

I'll even feign surprise when you drop my hat. Ohhh
I may pretend to be surprised by things you do, even though I secretly hoped for them.

Don't have to wonder what they're laughing about
We don't need to worry about what others think about us or our relationship.

Only matters if you swallow it down
The only thing that matters is how we respond to the opinions of others - we can choose to ignore them or let them impact us.

I don't care about what anyone believes
Others' opinions and judgments do not affect my feelings for you.

I only care about you and me
Our relationship is the only thing that matters to me.

And if we never understand a thing
There may be things about each other that we never fully comprehend or figure out.

Only gets you if you let the stuff sink in
Our relationship will only work if we are open to learning about each other and working through problems together.

So tell that joke that's no longer funny
Let's let loose and have fun, even if it means laughing at something that may not objectively be that funny.

Yeah I'll be eyeing that wine in no time honey
I'm eager to relax and enjoy your company, and a glass of wine never hurts.

And maybe later on if we still remember
If we continue to enjoy each other's company, maybe we can take things to a more intimate level.

You can be my king underneath my covers. Ohhh
If we develop a deeper relationship, you can be the one I turn to for comfort and closeness.

And oh I know, you're just as green as the day I met you
I recognize that you may be inexperienced in love or relationships, but I still believe in us.

You can tell me no, but it sure is good to see you
You may not always agree with me, but I still cherish our time together and value our connection.

I only care about you and me
Our relationship is the most important thing to me.
