Words and Music

You be words, and I'll be music
Ain't you heard, that's how they do it?
You're a poem when you're on your own
I'll try not to get in your way
But I've all the poems I have known, baby, you give me something to say

I'll be words, and you'll be music
I concur, I can't refuse it
You're a sad little tune by yourself
So lovely I wanna sing along
If there's one thing I know I can tell, when we get together we're a song

Whenever I'm with you it's true it's
Everything you say and do it's
Words & music, you & I

Listen here, I've gotta say it
It's so clear, the way we should play it
I will carry you, together we'll float through the sky
We can marry too, together just look at us fly

Whenever I'm with you it's true it's
Everything you say and do it's
Words & music, you & I

When we fight it's rock & roll
When we make it up, it's soul
And in the meanwhile, freestyle, play-by-ear, improvise
It's clear we go together, it's been like this forever
You & I and words & music

Whenever I'm with you it's true it's
Everything you say and do it's true
You and I are, you and I are
You and I are words & music
