We're In Love - Billy Vera & Judy Clay

You could absolutely break my heart That's how I know that we're in love I don't need the symbol of a scar So put down the knife We're not swapping blood Isn't it enough That we stripped down to our skin? Cold and porcelain Like bathers in a painting And I told you of your past lives Every man you've ever been It wasn't flattering But you listened like it mattered I feel crazy in ways I never say Will you still love me if it turns out I'm insane? I know what you'll say But it helps to hear you say it, anyway Some October, in the future I'll run out of trash TV And I'll be feeling lonely So I'll walk to karaoke Sing the song you wrote about me Never once checking the words I hope that no one sings along I hope that I am not a regular Damn, that makes me sad It doesn't have to be like that If you rewrite your life, may I still play a part? In the next one, will you find me? I'll be the boy with the pink carnation pinned to my lapel Who looks like hell and asks for help And if you do, I'll know it's you I can't imagine you without The same smile in your eyes There is something about you That I will always recognize And if you don't remember I will try to remind you Of the hummingbirds You know the ones (I know the ones) And the baby scorpion And the winter lunar halo And the walk we took in the redwoods I could go on and on and on and I will Go on and on and on until It all comes back

It's like a diamond ring, it's a precious thing And we never want to lose it It's like a favorite song that we love to sing Every time we hear the music And we're in this love together We got the kind that lasts forever We're in this love together And like berries on the vine, it gets sweeter all the time It's like a rainy night in candlelight And, ooh it's so romantic We got the whole thing working out so right, yes And it's just the way we planned it We're in this love together We got the kind that lasts forever Don't you know that we're in this love together And like berries on the vine, it gets sweeter all the time Don't you know, we're in this love together We got the kind that lasts forever We're in this love together We got a kind that will last forever and evermore Don't you know, we're in this love together We got the kind that lasts forever Tell you that we're in this love together Why don't you find love that has broken up the law Don't you know, that we're in this love together We got the kind that brings to mind a favorite song Girl they say that, we're in this love together We got the kind that lingers all night long, hey hey We're in this love together

We're all in love We're all in love We're all in love We're all in love We all sleep in one great big bed People like to think we're seekin' a head Everything to them is just a functional fit Got a bad reputation, just won't quit Defame with great suspicion, hostility Despisable, phenomenal, illusory Pretty fancy words for not really real Love ain't pretty, it's the way that we feel because We're all in love (We don't care) We're all in love (What could they do to us?) We're all in love (You can do what you wanna but) We're all in love Jumping 'round the stage like teenage girls Casting our swine before the pearls "Don't fuck with us," what people say They go to work, we go to play Drunk on the joy, a-singin' a song Loving hard as the day is long Excommunicated, then canonized When love is strong, life intensifies because We're all in love We're all in love We're all in love We're all in love We love fighting like all lovers do Love making up in a hour or two A kiss on the lips, unseemly for a man 'Least we don't go around holding hands Most times we don't, but don't stop trying With the music we got to manifest the divine To beam it up with love and let it rock on down 'Til every creature hip to the ultimate ground because We're all in love (What do we care?) We're all in love (It's our life) We're all in love (You can do what you wanna but) We're all in love (We don't care) We're all in love (In love) We're all in love (In love) We're all in love (In love) We're all in love Love Love Love Love

You've got your world And I've got mine And it's a shame Two grown up worlds That will never be the same Why can't we be Like storybook children Running through the rain Hand in hand Across the meadow Why can't we be Like storybook children In a wonderland Where nothing's planned for tomorrow You've got his ring You've got his heart You've got his baby And Billy it's too late To turn away And start all over again Oh no, don't tell me it's too late baby Why can't we be Like storybook children Running through the rain Hand in hand Across the meadow Oh, why, one more time Why can't we be Like storybook children In a wonderland In a wonderland Where nothing's planned for tomorrow Ooh, how happy we would be If only we Were storybook children

I bless the day I found you I want to stay around you And so I beg you Let it be me Don't take this heaven from one If you must cling to someone Now and forever Let it be me Each time we meet love I find complete love Without your sweet love What would life be So never ever leave me lonely Tell me you love me only And that you'll always Let it be me To you I'm praying Hear what I'm saying Please let your heart beat For me, for me, just for me Don't take this heaven If you must cling to someone Now and forever Let it, let it, let it, let it be me
