Lyrics
Another day we wake up side by side
Oh so many years now, boy how time flies
We have our moments, we've yelled and cussed
Purging out vibes
It's all about us
Others have failed to find our formula
We just know we love one another
We find time for love and the time for lust
Maintaining mood
It's all about us
No hearts to break
No dreams to crush
No vile thoughts
No loss of trust
What else is there left to discuss?
One day at a time, when it's all about us
What's left now for the next fifty or so?
Our skin is older and the kids are all grown
What seems like a lot is just never enough
Creating time
It's all about us
