I know I don't fit in your box
Two different tracks we have to cross
I'll forge my way to get my chance
To prove I'm better than you thought
Smooth like whiskey rough like wine
Stay with me I'll show you in time
You're not yourself when he's around
Your beautiful and he's got you down
You and I could see the world
Changing the path on which we walk
Yeah you and I
Could be the very best thing
Yeah you and I
Could be the very best thing
If you'll grant me a chance
To be the man you know I am
We could be the best thing
Your mother says that I'm no good
Wrong part of town wrong neighborhood
And you're father thinks that I'm (upper note)
Going no where and a waste of time (obbligato)
What do we say to all our friends
Who only doubt us in the end
Pull out the stops to prove them wrong
No one thought we'd last this long
You and I could see the world
Changing the path on which we walk
Yeah you and I
Could be the very best thing
Yeah you and I
Could be the very best thing
If you'll grant me a chance
To be the man you know I am
We could be the best thing
Yeah you and I...
Could be the very best thing
