Sometimes I really need to just sit down with my guy
Discuss the passing of time and the mysteries of life
For you see I feel that he is much wiser than I
My tendency is to fly through day and night with closed eyes
Never taking a moment to slow down and smell the roses
Going down the same damned road with the choke wide open
I have to relax, chill out and take a moment
Just to open up my mind, find some light and regain focus
I have a lot to share since the last crossing of paths
But I know that he can relate to the fate of man
We all rotate around the sun on the same place in space
No matter what the case, religion, race, sex or age
If we only find laughter in a story of amusement
Conversation with an old friend, is time well spent
Pass another cold one my way, cheers to years gone by
So much has changed but we remain, so here's to you and I

There are times when I need to just chill out with my gal
Lounge around the house and make a home cooked meal
Pop the cork on some good wine, I love the way it makes me feel
Red or white, you pick tonight, you know the deal
Baby, it's you and me, maybe a movie
We can cuddle on the couch, maybe get a little groovy
You're such a cutie, you make me laugh, you so goofy
Put your lips on mine, it's divine, when you smooch me
Tell me how your week went, was it all right my dear?
I know it's hard when you get home and I'm not here
We're like ships passing in the night but don't you dare fear
When the weekend nears will dock at the same pier
Under The moonlight, wish upon a falling star with passion
With that nest egg we're building we'll make it happen
We've come such a long way and I still feel the magic
So raise your glass up my love, here's to lasting

Raise your glass up

I need to spend a little bit of time by myself
Clean the cobwebs out the corners, and dust off the shelf
Get back to a stable place, balance my mental health
Place things in order, play the cards that are dealt
Take a deep breath, then take a few steps back
View the scenery, so I know how to react
Gotta' take a couple notes, I'm a forgetful man
Make those adjustments to these blueprints that rest in my hands
It's all right, in fact it's better than good, it's great
Don't know if I remember a time I felt this way
Seem to have it all sorted out, like food on my plate
Seeing the things to seize now and the ones that will wait
Making moves to get it all done in a timely fashion
Serious to an extent but calm and relaxed
And at times when I should be mad, I'm only laughing
Tipping my cup to the guy in the sky, let's get it crackin'

Raise your glass up
Raise your glass up
Raise your glass up
Here's to you and I
Raise your glass up
Raise your glass up
Raise your glass up
Here's to you and I
