You be words and I'll be music
Ain't you heard that's how to do it
You're a poem when you're on your own
I try not to get in your way
But if all the pretty poems I have known
Baby you give me something to say
    
I'll be words and you be music
I concur I can't refuse it
You're a sad little tune by yourself
So lovely I wanna sing along
If there's one thing I know I can tell
When we get together we're a song
Whenever I'm with you it's true it's
Everything you say and do it's
Words and music you and I
    
Listen here
I've got to say it
It's so clear
The way we should play it
I will carry -arry -arry you
Together we'll float through the sky
We can marry -arry -arry too
Together just look at us fly
    
Whenever I'm with you it's true it's
Everything you say and do it's
Words and music you and I
    
When we fight it's rock and roll
When we make it up it's soul
And in the meanwhile freestyle play by ear and improvise
It's clear we go together
It's been like this forever
You and I and words and music
    
Whenever I'm with you it's new it's
Everything you say and do it's true
You and I are (You and I are)
You and I are (You and I are)
You and I are words and music
