A relationship is a song that only the two of you can hear.
lyrics
it’s the record you have, but the song that you want
the body you get, but the soul that you don't
so let’s give it a spin, and play each other our parts
til we know all by heart, and send it up the charts
every day we’re learning another note
of a song that’ll be the best we ever wrote
you pick it up and I’ll play along
together we belong, the rhythm is so strong
sing it to me, I’ll sing it to you
no one can hear, only we two
every time it sounds brand new
playing our song, all the way through
sometimes it’s quiet, sometimes rough
some days it never seems long enough
but I hear the tune and my heart just wants to pop
then we take it from the top, and I never wanna stop
mmm, we go together perfectly
you and I make harmony
we’re a song in a million, and a million songs in one
and when each day is done, another verse is spun
sing it to me, I’ll sing it to you
no one can hear, only we two
every time it sounds brand new
playing our song, all the way through
until our melody fades
ooh, but what good music we made
instrumental
it’s the record you have, but the song that you want
the body you get, but the soul that you don't
so let’s give it a spin, and play each other our parts
til we know all by heart, and send it up the charts
sing it to me, I’ll sing it to you
no one can hear, only we two
every time it sounds brand new
playing our song, all the way through
