From the recording You & I
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
We lit it up, then blew the fuse,
Got caught up in our own excuse.
We played it cool, we played pretend,
But every story meets an end.
(Pre-Chorus)
We were neon for a minute,
Shining till the color faded out.
Yeah, I still hear the echoes in it,
But I know better now.
(Chorus)
You and I, you and I,
Would not be strong together,
Would not work together.
We were just a spark in the sky,
Burned too bright, now whatever.
You and I, you and I,
Were good for the night, not forever.
(Verse 2)
You got your friends, I got my shows,
I dance it off, that’s how it goes.
We had the beat, we lost the groove,
Guess that’s what young love tends to do.
(Pre-Chorus)
We were magic for a moment,
Living in a song we can’t replay.
No regrets, I’ll still own it—
Just better off this way.
(Chorus)
You and I, you and I,
Would not be strong together,
Would not work together.
We were just a spark in the sky,
Burned too bright, now whatever.
You and I, you and I,
Were good for the night, not forever.
(Bridge)
Flashback to the dance floor, heat,
Hearts in sync, then skipped a beat.
No tears, just glitter in my hair,
I’m moving on—don’t care.
(Final Chorus)
You and I, you and I,
Would not be strong together,
Would not work together.
We were just a spark in the sky,
Burned too bright, now whatever.
You and I, you and I,
Were good for the night, not forever.
