Well if I spell it out If I yell it out Will you hear me when I tell you about What I have to say before it gets too late? It's not as easy as I said it'd be But there's something right about you and me Something right about you and me
Well you're the color of a burning brook You're the color of a sideways look from an undercover cop in a comic book You're the color of a storm in June You're the color of the moon You're the color of the night, that's right Color of a fight, you move me You're the color of the colored part of the Wizard of Oz movie
We're like Romeo and Juliet We're like 40 dogs and cigarettes We're like good times that haven't happened yet, but will
And I can tell you where we're going to be When the whole world falls into the sea We'll be living ever after, happily
All the boys taking you for granted Tell you what they want, with their eyes all slanted I don't like the way they look at you I don't like the way they talk to I don't like the way they talk to you I wouldn't let them talk to you like that
Put em' up high, reach for the ceiling Tell them that I'ma walk, damn it, I'm real It ain't no crimes, it's just dreams we stealing Anything to get more of this feeling You take the high and I'll take the low We'll get there before you know We ain't got no time to waste We got too much life to taste
We're like Romeo and Juliet And 40 dogs and cigarettes We're like good times that haven't happened yet, but will
And I can tell you where we're going to be When the whole world falls into the sea We'll be living ever after, happily
Sometimes you remind me of a moonbeam On the ghost of a moonbeam Out on the beach down by the coast Slip into Manila like the most, beautiful thing, I've ever seen
Come out tonight, come out with me, baby We'll throw the careful into the crazy Turn the sky black into a sky blue Turn a close shave into a hoo-hoo! What I say is true Make a fire gotta burn a few Make a fire gotta burn a few And we can do what we want to do
We're like Romeo and Juliet 40 dogs and cigarettes We're like good times that haven't happened yet, but will
I can tell you where we're going to be When the whole world falls into the sea We'll be living ever after, happily
