[Intro]


                  
We've been in the rain
                  
We've been on the mountain
                     
We've been round the fire


         
In fancy hotels
                 
Drank water from farm wells
                 
We sang with the choir

                  
I kissed your dry lips
                  
We jumped off the high cliffs
                  
And splashed down below


        
Skin to skin
             
In the salty river
                        
Made love in the shadow
       
Woooah ooh


     /      
Read books to each other
                     
Read the mind of the other
                  
Flew one thousand jets


                  
We laughed and we cried
                   
At movies and real life
                  
In our ridiculous beds


                 
We danced in the moonlight at midnight
                   
We pressed against back doors and wooden floors
              
And you never faked it


            
And frequently
               
We ignored our love
                             
But we could never mistake it
         /
Oooh ooh

   /   
We met on the front porch
                    
Fell in love on the phone
                     
Without the physical wreck


                
You gave me the necklace
             
That used to hang
                    
Around your mothers neck


                
We questioned religions
                 
Fed bread to the pigeons
                  
We learned how to pray


                
We stood by the ocean
                        
Turned our hearts in to one
                       
We laid in bed all day
      
Heeey-ey


   /       
We skipped on the sidewalk
                      
Skipped stones on the water
           
We skipped town


               
We've seen the sunrise with new eyes
                         
We've seen the damage of gossip and true lies
                      
We've seen the sun go down


               
Had passionate makeouts
               
And passionate freakouts
                           
We built this world of our own


                        
It was in the back of a taxi
                     ~
When you told me you loved me
                 ~      ~ ~
And that I wasnt alone
