Lyrics
Now, we’re happy to sit,Day after day The two of usWasting away, making believeThere’s a reason to stay together
Now, we’re happy to sit,Night after night The two of usConvinced that it’s right, hiding the yawnsSomehow getting along together
Afraid we’d always be aloneWe made a home that we could always shareJust to know that someone would be thereEven if we never learned to care
And now, it’s almost enough,Year after year The two of usNothing to fear, nothing at allBut the rest of our lives
