two of us
Supertramp㈠ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look at me I'm a speck of sand,
And I'm building ,dreams in a strangers land
Tell me why do I care
Tell me why do I care.

Every time that I'm feeling down, oh they,
Pick me up and they spin me round.
Tell me where do we go,
Tell me where do we go from here.

What are we gonna find out (find out)
What are we gonna find out (find out)
Leave the wilderness, and as long as there's dreams,
Just as long as there's two of us,
Just as long as there's two of us, I'll carry on

Won't you hold me

When is man gonna find out (find out)
When are we gonna find out (find out)
What the universe is just waiting to here,
Just as long as there's two of us
Just as long as there's two of us




Just as long as there's two of us,
We'll carry on.

@Nefariwhore

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

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
