You and I (On the Other Side of the World)

Tamara Lindeman

[Verse 1]
Oh, it was always a marriage
From the moment that you stepped into my hallway
Shy as anyone I'd ever known
You choose what to believe in in this flippant time
There's no real reason not to
We wrote letters to each other
As though addressing the ocean

[Chorus]
That we stand before now
You in my old cardigan and I in your blue jeans
And the light turned golden
On the distant headlands and the ocean
And you and I on the other side of the world

[Post-Chorus]
Love, it is no mystery, it never has been
No, not to me
I love because I see

[Verse 2]
But we never got better, we never got to talking
We never figured out the questions, we got good at walking
Walking the streets when it was too hot to eat
Walking in step, we can't help it

[Chorus]
You remember in June?
You showed up one day with a small leather suitcase
Swaying your walk and you stayed on with me
Late into the evening
Into all the years that have passed on since then
With no certainty, no agreement
More intimate than I could imagine
But with space, I cannot fathom
Like a song with so much silence
Or just like you in your defiance

[Post-Chorus]
You say you never questioned anything
You say you knew from the beginning

[Verse 3]
I ask for your hand in it, some infinite understanding
But I don't know nothing of what I'm asking
I've no idea of what it will entail
I asked for your hand
Like it was too intimate to ask for your mind
Or to count on kindness like I count on your presence
Like I don't count on nothing else

[Outro]
Oh, it was always a marriage
From the moment that you stepped into my hallway
Shy as anyone I'd ever known
Curious and alone
