Lyrics
We've always been so close
Could tell each other everything
I know when we grow old
It won't be a scary thing
Cause I have you and you have me too
Chorus:
Wherever we end up in a park or at a zoo
A fancy New York flat or a tiny hotel room
We can rent a van and move to a big suburban haunt
Or fly across the pond to a little London loft
Wherever we go I'll never be alone
You'll always be my home
Remember how we met
The piano bar on 46th
Your love I couldn't resist
Reckless it may have been
Cause I had you and you had me too
Chorus:
Bridge:
Through the years the passions fade
We had no kids along the way
Through the thick and through the thin
You've remained my closest friend
Cause I have you and you have me too
Chorus:
