You and me forever We belong together And we'll always endeavor Throughout any type of weather
You want everything to be just like The stories that you read but never write You gotta learn to live and live and learn You gotta learn to give and wait your turn Or you'll get burned
You wrote our names down on the sidewalk The rain came and washed 'em off So we should write 'em again on wet cement So maybe people a long time from now will know what we meant
You want every morning to be just like The stories that you read but never write You gotta learn to live and live and learn You gotta learn to give and wait your turn My only concern
I'm adding something new to the mixture So there's a different hue to your picture A different ending to this fairytale When the sunset into which we sail
You want everything to be just like The stories that you read but you can't write You gotta learn to live and live and learn You gotta learn to give and wait your turn Or you'll get burned
