You be words, and I'll be music

Ain't you heard, that's how they do it?

You're a poem when you're on your own

I'll try not to get in your way

But I've all the poems I have known

baby, you give me something to say

I'll be words, and you'll be music

I concur, I can't refuse it

You're a sad little tune by yourself

So lovely I wanna sing along

If there's one thing I know I can tell

when we get together we're a song

Whenever I'm with you it's true it's

Everything you say and do it's

Words & music, you & I

Listen here, I've gotta say it

It's so clear, the way we should play it

I will carry you, together we'll float through the sky

We can marry too, together just look at us fly

Whenever I'm with you it's true it's

Everything you say and do it's

Words & music, you & I

When we fight it's rock & roll

When we make it up, it's soul

And in the meanwhile, freestyle, play-by-ear, improvise

It's clear we go together, it's been like this forever

You & I and words & music

Whenever I'm with you it's true it's

Everything you say and do it's true

You and I are, you and I are

You and I are words & music
