You and Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I get home from work
I wanna wrap myself around you
I wanna take you and squeeze you
'Til the passion starts to rise

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna take you to heaven
That would make my day complete

[Chorus]
But you and me ain't no movie stars
What we are is what we are
We share a bed, some lovin' and TV, yeah
And that's enough for a workin' man
What I am is what I am
And I tell you, babe, well that's enough for me

[Verse 2]
Sometimes when you're asleep
And I'm just starin' at the ceiling
I wanna reach out and touch you
But you just go on dreamin'

[Pre-Chorus]
If I could take you to heaven
That would make my day complete
[Chorus]
But you and me ain't no movie stars
What we are is what we are
We share a bed, some lovin' and TV, yeah
'Cause that's enough for a workin' man
What I am is what I am
And I tell you, sweetheart, that's just enough for me

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You and me ain't no superstars
What we are is what we are
We share a bed, some popcorn and TV, yeah
And that's enough for a workin' man
What I am is what I am
And I tell you, babe, you're just enough for me

[Verse 3]
When I get home from work
I wanna wrap myself around you
I'd like to hold you, squeeze you
'Til the passion starts to rise

[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna take you to heaven
That would make my day complete
[Chorus]
You and me ain't no movie stars
What we are is what we are
We share a bed, some lovin' and TV, yeah
And that's enough for a workin' man
What I am, well that's what I am
I tell you, baby, that's just enough for me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
