Better Together

There is no combination fo words

I could put on the back of a postcard

And no song that I could sing

but I can try for your heart

And our dreams

and they are made out of real things

Like a shoebox of photographs

with sepia-toned loving

Love is the answer at least

for most of the questions in my heart

Why are we here?

And where do we go?

And How come it's so hard?

It's not always easy

and sometimes life can be deceiving

I'll tell you one thing,

it's always better when we're together

It's always better when we're together

We'll look at the stars when we're together

It's always better when we're together

It's always better when we're together

And all of these moments just might find

their way into my dreams tonight

But I know that they'll be gone

when the morning light sings

Or brings new things

for tomorrow night you see

That they'll be gone too,

too many things I have to do

But if all of these dreams might find

their way into my day to day scene

I'd be under the impression

I was somewhere in between

With only two, just me and you,

not so many things we got to do

Or places we got to be

we'll sit beneath the mango tree now

it's always better when we're together

we're somewhere in between together

It's always better when we're together

It's always better when we're together

I believe in memories

they look so pretty when I sleep

And when I wake up you look

so pretty sleeping next to me

But there is not enough time

And there is no song I could sing

And there is no combination of words I could say

But I will still tell you one thing

We're better together
