We
Kenny G & Smokey Robinson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our hearts have all grown up.
Just a little wiser,
But are we wise enough?
Watching imitations of the real thing.
You and I have both been fooled before.
But this time, we win.
Forget the past.
We've saved the best for last.
Now that we are younger
Than we were last night.
You can be my arrow,
I'll be your guiding light.
There isn't any danger we can't handle.
But this time, we win.
Our ship has just come in.
Forget the past.
We've saved the best for last.
Tonight entwined.
This love is genuine.
Forget the past.
We've saved the best for last.
We've both had enough of hesistation.
Didn't matter, didn't matter.
But this time, we win.
Our ship has just come in.
Forget the past.
We've saved the best for last.
Tonight entwined.
This love is genuine.
Forget the past.
We've saved the best for last. [Repeat until fade]
The lyrics of Kenny G & Smokey Robinson's song We in 2-3 show a reflection on the growth and maturity of the singers' hearts.

Now that we are older
Our hearts have all grown up
Just a little wiser
But are we wise enough?
Watching imitations of the real thing
You and I have both been fooled before
But this time, we win
Our ship has just come in
Forget the past
We've saved the best for last
Now that we are younger
Than we were last night
You can be my high road
I'll be your guiding light
There isn't any danger we can't handle
But this time, we win
Our ship has just come in
Forget the past
We've saved the best for last
Two hearts entwined
This love is genuine.
Forget the past
We've saved the best for last
We've both had enough of hesitation
Didn't matter, didn't matter
But this time, we win
Our ship has just come in
Forget the past
We've saved the best for last.
Two hearts entwined
This love is genuine
Forget the past
We've saved the best for last
But this time, we win
Our ship has just come in
Forget the past
We've saved the best for last
Two hearts entwined
This love is genuine
Forget the past
We've saved the best for last
