Text: Josh Groban. Chess in Concert (2 CD). You and I.
This is an all too familiar scene
Life imperceptively coming between
Those whose love is as strong as it could or should be
I'd give the world to stay just as we are
It's better by far
Not to be too wise
As we realize
There was truth and there were lies
Knowing I want you, knowing I love you
Cannot compare to my despair, knowing I've lost you
I've been a fool to allow
dreams to become great expectations
How can I love you so much, yet make no move
There will be days and nights when I want you
More than I want to
More than I should
Oh, I have lost you
You and I, we've seen it all
Chasing our hearts desire
But we go on pretending
Stories like ours, have happy endings
You could not give me, more than you gave me
I don't know why I'm standing by watching this happen
I won't look back anymore, and If I do, just for a moment
I can't imagine a time, when I would care
but here we are today and it's over
Hold me and tell me we'll meet again
One happy moment
You and I, we've seen it all
Chasing our hearts desire
But we go on pretending
Stories like ours
Have happy endings
Life imperceptively coming between
Those whose love is as strong as it could or should be
I'd give the world to stay just as we are
It's better by far
Not to be too wise
As we realize
There was truth and there were lies
Knowing I want you, knowing I love you
Cannot compare to my despair, knowing I've lost you
I've been a fool to allow
dreams to become great expectations
How can I love you so much, yet make no move
There will be days and nights when I want you
More than I want to
More than I should
Oh, I have lost you
You and I, we've seen it all
Chasing our hearts desire
But we go on pretending
Stories like ours, have happy endings
You could not give me, more than you gave me
I don't know why I'm standing by watching this happen
I won't look back anymore, and If I do, just for a moment
I can't imagine a time, when I would care
but here we are today and it's over
Hold me and tell me we'll meet again
One happy moment
You and I, we've seen it all
Chasing our hearts desire
But we go on pretending
Stories like ours
Have happy endings
