"You And I Both" lyrics - JASON MRAZ

Was it you who spoke the words that things would happen but not to me
Oh things are gonna happen naturally
Oh taking your advice and I'm looking on the bright side
And balancing the whole thing

Oh but at often times those words get tangled up in lines
And the bright light turns to night
Oh until the dawn it brings
Another day to sing about the magic that was you and me

'Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
Others only read of the love
Oh the love that I love
La la la la

See I'm all about them words
Over numbers, unencumbered numbered words
Hundreds of pages, pages, pages for words
More words than I had ever heard
And I feel so alive

'Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
And if you could see me now
Oh love, love

You and I you and I
Not so little you and I any more
And with this silence brings a moral story
More importantly evolving
Is the glory of a boy

'Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
And if you could see me now
Well then I'm almost finally out of
I'm finally out of
Finally de de de de de de de,
Well I'm almost finally, finally,
Well I am free, oh, I'm free

And it's okay
If you had to go away
Oh just remember the telephones
Well they work in both ways
(Additional lyrics from live version:
And the more you follow through,
There's always more left over,
And not too much explaining to do.
And if ever you find your love,
I will be your lifeline,
I will never miss your phonecall)
But if I never, ever hear them ring
If nothing else
I'll think the bells inside have finally found you someone else
And that's okay
'Cause I'll remember everything you sang

'Cause you and I both loved
What you and I spoke of
And others just read of
And if you could see me now
Well then I'm almost finally out of
I'm finally out of, finally de de de de de de de de,
Well I'm almost finally, finally,
Out of words.
