美国偶像 You and I Both - Jason Mraz

Was it you who spoke¹ the words that things would happen but not to me

Oh things are gonna happen naturally

Oh taking your advice I'm looking on the bright side

And balancing the whole thing

But often times those words get tangled² up in lines

And the bright lights turn to night

Until the dawn it brings

Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me

Cause you and I both loved

What you and I spoke of

And others just read of

Others only read of the love, the love that I love.

See I'm all about them words

Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words

Hundreds of pages, pages, pages forwards

More words then I had ever heard and I feel so alive

Cause you and I both loved

What you and I spoke of

And others just dream of

And if you could see me now

You and I, you and I

Not so little you and I anymore

And with this silence brings a moral³ story

More importantly evolving⁴ is the glory⁵ of a boy

Cause you and I both loved

What you and I spoke of

And others just dream of

And if you could see me now

Well I'm almost finally out of

I'm finally out of

Finally deedeedeedee

Well I'm almost finally, finally

Well I'm free, oh, I'm free

And it's okay if you have go away

Oh just remember the telephone works⁶ both ways

And if I never ever hear them ring

If nothing else I'll think the bells inside

Have finally found you someone else and that's okay

Cause I'll remember everything you sang

Cause you and I both loved what you and I spoke of

and others just read of and if you could see now

well I'm almost finally out of.

I'm finally out of, finally, deedeeededede

well I'm almost finally, finally, finally out of words.
