Before there was we there was you
And when you were young all was new.

Do you think about that. I still do.
Before there was we there was you.

***

Before there was we there was me
And when I was young I was free.

But I dreamed about you on my knee.
Before there was we there was me.

***

Before I brought tears to your eyes
They had visions of stars in the skies

And they traveled in books and grew wise
Before I brought tears to your eyes.

***

Before we decided to share
All our hopes and our joy as a pair

We were sure that we hadn't a care.
Before we decided to share.

***

Before we grew up and grew bold
All our dreaming was vast and controlled

But this life paid its fees in fool's gold
Before we grew up and grew bold.

***

Before life was harsh and unkind
And the fates put us into a bind

You had not been so sad and resigned
Before life was harsh and unkind.

***

Before we give up and despair
Let the we that we are learn to care

0nce again let us dream how we'll fare
Before we give up and despair.

***

Before skies were gray they were blue
And the hearts that were broken were few.

Life is precious to live so let's do,
Before skies were gray they were blue.
