Against the World
You're a puzzle, a painting
A Shakespeare play
I understand you half the time
Whatever's going on
Inside your head
I know your heart and that thing's mine
You're the only one who's
Two steps ahead
You always keep me on my toes
Well, that's 'cause you're short.
You're always there with me
At my highest highs
And you don't run away when I hit my lows
We'll be together
Hand in hand
Just you and me against the world
Just you and me
Standing together
No matter what the future holds
Things are better when
There's no one else
Things are clear when we're alone
We could run away and
Leave this all behind
You got my heart, you got my soul
"Running away, let's do it"
You keep me sane
Let's get away from all this din
That's a fancy word—
Shut up.
And with you by my side
To keep me green
I can't do anything but win
We'll be together
Hand in hand
Just you and me against the world
Just you and me
Standing together
No matter what the future holds
No matter what the future holds
No, wait, wait, stop. I can't go there yet.
What are you talking about?
The future, I— I can't. I can't promise that.
I don't how to give you the future you need.
You need puzzles, and paintings
And Shakespeare plays
I can't be all of that for you
When it's just you and me
And no one else
You don't see all that I can't do
You're two steps ahead
And always out of sync
A different wavelength
From the world
You're special
And I'm me
I'll never understand
What it's like to be you
Something different altogether
And you live in a different world
Just you and me
Each a separate entity
No matter how tightly we hold
No matter how tightly we hold
A Shakespeare play
I understand you half the time
Whatever's going on
Inside your head
I know your heart and that thing's mine
You're the only one who's
Two steps ahead
You always keep me on my toes
Well, that's 'cause you're short.
You're always there with me
At my highest highs
And you don't run away when I hit my lows
We'll be together
Hand in hand
Just you and me against the world
Just you and me
Standing together
No matter what the future holds
Things are better when
There's no one else
Things are clear when we're alone
We could run away and
Leave this all behind
You got my heart, you got my soul
"Running away, let's do it"
You keep me sane
Let's get away from all this din
That's a fancy word—
Shut up.
And with you by my side
To keep me green
I can't do anything but win
We'll be together
Hand in hand
Just you and me against the world
Just you and me
Standing together
No matter what the future holds
No matter what the future holds
No, wait, wait, stop. I can't go there yet.

And you live in a different world
Just you and me
Each a separate entity
No matter how tightly we hold
No matter how tightly we hold
