(Chorus)
But it all came down to you and I,
But it all came down to you and I.
(Verse)
There were banged-up hens stealing first base,
Underneath the tables so we never said grace.
Falling out of bed for the workday week
There was kissing in the cracks of the flash flood street.
There were budding blossoms bearing jolly rotten,
Chewed up and swallowed by the prophet they were trying to follow,
Bit too green, and we paid no tax on our quick romantic cul-de-sac.
(Chorus)
But it all came down to you and I,
But it all came down to you and I.
(Verse)
There were washed-out cards in our bark-old clothes
They were rubbing on each other, rubbing ghost on ghost.
There were jonesed-up punks and Jesus freaks
Weaving in and out of trouble, wrapping 'round and 'round a leash.
There were sleepless dreamers, doomsday preachers
The message and the messenger, the gun beneath the register
The sweet gum tree by the dug drunk tank
We could never give enough to the bad-luck bank.
There were hopeless sinners, sweepstake winners
They danced with the farmer’s daughter, capered with the corporate lawyers.
(Chorus)
But it all came down to you and I,
But it all came down to you and I,
But it all came down to you and I,
But it all came down to you and I.
(Chorus)
There was laughing in the night, sugar in the shade
There were backstab handshakes made on faith.
We were never out of time and we never entertained,
Anybody say the habit that the wind was going to change.
There were misled misfits, teething biscuits
Fountains full of penny wishes, parties full of pretty pictures.
Side by side with the birds and bees
And we never said grace and never ever took a knee
With the saints and ramblers, movie star handlers
High above the aviary, underneath the cemetery.
And we never wondered why, because the sun was in our eyes
There was seed for the field, there was grease for the wheel
We were drinking with the luminaries, eating with the missionaries.
(Chorus)
But it all came down to you and I,
But it all came down to you and I,
But it all came down to you and I,
But it all came down to you and I.
