You & Me Lyrics:

When everything fades to black
And the only sound I hear is a subtle laugh
Under your breath
A moment buried deep in the past
That has decided to come near you in a moment that’s last
Where do you go?
I grew up hearing that it was Heaven
A place that people go to praise the creator they think sent them
For a while I think I believed it too
But now I think the only thing I believe in is you

Oh all that exists right now is you and me
So even if we turn the lights down
It’s you I see
Oh all that exists right now is you and me
So even if we turn the lights down
It’s you I see

All we have is now
All we ever had is now
Ima hold you while I know the two of us are still around
Let’s feel everything there is to feel
And reveal what it is into the teal
Sky is the limit
But to get there is a gift and
When we do
I hope I have a seat reserved next to you
Maybe when it’s green
And we’ve seen all we can see
We’ll understand that subtle laugh is all we ever really need

Oh all that exists right now is you and me
So even if we turn the lights down
It’s you I see
Oh all that exists right now is you and me
So even if we turn the lights down
It’s you I see

I said all that exists right now is you and me
So even if we turn the lights down
It’s you I see
Yeah all that exists right now is you and me
So even if we turn the lights down
It’s you I see
