Just the Two of Us
Grover Washington Jr. & Bill Withers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
(Just the two of us) Just the two of us
(We can make it, just the two of us)
Let's get it together baby (yeah)
(Just the two of us)
Just the two of us
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)
(We can make it, just the two of us)
(Just the two of us)

I hear the crystal raindrops fall...
And the beauty of it all...
That'd be when the sun's shining through
But the thunder still rings in my mind
And I can't recall your face in time
So please share these moments with someone new
Just the two of you
I don't want to make you cry
Just the two of you
(Just the two of you)
Just the two of you
Safe, out of reach in the sky
Just the two of you
You and that guy
Can't look for love when I can't see
Everything's blurred in front of me
From the flashing rainstorm in my eyes
Good things do come for those who wait
But some of us should wait too late
I'm unworthy of you, I realize
Just the two of you
I don't want to make you cry
Just the two of you
(Just the two of you)
Just the two of you
Safe, out of reach in the sky
Just the two of you
You and that guy
I see the crystal raindrops fall
On the window down the hall
Still waiting for them to shine anew
But darling, too many mornings passed
And I'm still sleeping through sunrise
While you need someone there with you
Just the two of you
I don't want to make you cry
Just the two of you
(Just the two of you)
Just the two of you
Safe, out of reach in the sky
Just the two of you
You and that guy
Just the two of you
Yes, the two of you
You can make it just the two of you
