The 2 of Us - Remastered

Lying in my bed, I think of you
That song goes through my head, the one we both knew
In each line lies another line full of sacred sound
But you're outside where the companies dream
And the money goes round

Lying in my bed, watching my mistakes
I listen to the band, they said that it could be the 2 of us

The snow might fall and write the lines on the silent page
But you're outside making permanent love to the nuclear age
Two silhouettes by the cash machine make a lovers dance
It's a tango for the lonely wives of the business class

Lying in my bed, watching my mistakes
I listen to the band
Lying in my bed, nothing much to say
So I listen to the man, he said that it could be the 2 of us

I heard you call from across the city through the stereo sound
And so I crawled there sickeningly pretty
As the money went round

Lying in my bed, watching my mistakes
I listen to the band
And the drums beat in my head
Pianos chime the sound, in this prison of the house

And as the illness comes again
Can you hear me through the rain
As I listen to the band?
As I sing the silent song?
Mime each lonely word
Please listen to the man
He said that it could be the 2 of us

Alone but not lonely, you and me
Alone but not lonely, you and me
Alone but loaded, oh oh oh
Alone but loaded, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
