The Two of Us

The two of us

We dances the same rhythm

But to a beat of our own

You moved with such depth

And I moved with such little

The two of us

We sung the same song

With a meaning all our own

You sang with such intensity

And my voice was never quite that strong

The two of us

We walked the same pathway

But our journeys were all our own

Yours held so many obstacles

And mine didn't seem that long

The two of us

We both looked through jaded eyes

But different eyes saw different skies

And different minds told different lies

Yours told you, you were too strong

And mine—too weak

That one of us lived in the right and the other—the wrong

But, the two of us

So incompletely equal

We belonged

Like the movements in a dance

And the lyrics to a song

Like the journey to a path

And like eternity, we would last
