You & Eye
You and I
May kill ourselves
You and I'll go straight to hell
Where they have barbecue and beer
Better than they do up here
And you know all the words to the songs
Yeah, we smoke cigarettes
We dance with the dead
They're soft to the touch
We drink way too much
And darling, I think you'll like it here
You might like it here
You and I, we ain't no saints
You and I, we can see our fates
We'll be the faces in the clouds
We'll be a gospel singer's shout
We'll be the lights from an airplane at night
Hey, I can't stay in my skin
I've been in here for too long
But I know where to find a really good time
And darling, I think you'll like it here
You might like it here
Oh, I'm gonna fall in love
With everyone I meet
And everyone I see
And everything I touch
And everything I feel
Isn't that the way? (Isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be
I'm the look upon your face
The water on your lawn
The light from distant stars
The wreckage of a plane
The space between your teeth
The itch you cannot scratch
The mentally unfit
The pimple on your lip
Isn't that the way? (Isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way)
I'm the ice cubes in your glass
A busted Cadillac
A garden of delight
A joker in your deck
Well, it ain't in what I feel
No, it ain't in what I say
In the pleasure of a kiss
It never fades away
Isn't that the way? (Isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be? (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
(Wow-wow, ay-ay-ay)
You and I, ooh-ooh
You and I
May kill ourselves
You and I'll go straight to hell
Where they have barbecue and beer
Better than they do up here
And you know all the words to the songs
Yeah, we smoke cigarettes
We dance with the dead
They're soft to the touch
We drink way too much
And darling, I think you'll like it here
You might like it here
You and I, we ain't no saints
You and I, we can see our fates
We'll be the faces in the clouds
We'll be a gospel singer's shout
We'll be the lights from an airplane at night
Hey, I can't stay in my skin
I've been in here for too long
But I know where to find a really good time
And darling, I think you'll like it here
You might like it here
Oh, I'm gonna fall in love
With everyone I meet
And everyone I see
And everything I touch
And everything I feel
Isn't that the way? (Isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be
I'm the look upon your face
The water on your lawn
The light from distant stars
The wreckage of a plane
The space between your teeth
The itch you cannot scratch
The mentally unfit
The pimple on your lip
Isn't that the way? (Isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way)
I'm the ice cubes in your glass
A busted Cadillac
A garden of delight
A joker in your deck
Well, it ain't in what I feel
No, it ain't in what I say
In the pleasure of a kiss

Isn't that the way? (Isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be? (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
It's supposed to be (isn't that the way?)
(Wow-wow, ay-ay-ay)
You and I, ooh-ooh
You and I
