The Sound Of You And I
Seabird Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You taught me how to love and how to dance
When things went wrong you always had a song
That always seemed to make things right
It was the sound of you and I
The sound of you and I
Maybe someday soon I'll become a man
With yours in mine, I think I'll be alright
I think I'll make it through the night
When I hear the sound of you and I
The sound of you and I
When you're away, you think it'd be okay
To sing this song just one more time?
I love the sound of you and I
The sound of you and I
The sound of you and I
The sound of you and I
I love the sound of you and I
