A Nation of Two

and i made an expedition through a country thats not my own
crossed the mountains and swam the rivers
found we're still alone
and i came across the desert
trying to make life a metaphor
but there was no one there to share my wisdom
so i moved along
i thought if you really want, want to love somebody
it will cost you more than you have
i can guarantee you that

so i turned to education
sought understanding of humankind
stood on the shoulders of prudent giants
just trying to glimpse the light
but the shadow was overwhelming
it buries good men beneath the sand
so i reached out for a savior and i found her hand

if you really want, want to love somebody
it will cost you more than you have
i can guarantee you that
if you really want, want to love somebody
it will cost you more than you have
i can guarantee you that

it's worth every breathe

i can guarantee you that
i can guarantee you that
i can guarantee that there's nothing in this life
that has ever felt so right
and there's nothing in this world
except you
and me
and there's nothing in this life
that has ever felt so right
and there's nothing in this world
except you
and me

there's no one in this life
quite like the two of us
there's no one in this world
quite like the two of us
quite like the two of us
quite like the two of us
quite like the two of us
