But hey now, you know girl,
We both know it s a cruel world
But I will take my chances

As long as you love me
We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke
As long as you love me

We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke

A couple of things I can t spell without you
Now we are on top of the world, cause that s just how we do
Used to tell me sky s the limit, now the sky s is our point of view
Man now we stepping out like Whoa! (Oh God)
Camera s point and shoot,
Ask me what s my best side, I stand back and point at you you you
The one that I ve argue with, I feel like I need a new girl to be bother with,
But the grass ain t always greener on the other side,
It s green where you water it
So I know,we got issues baby true true true
But I d rather work on this with you
Then go ahead and start with someone new
As long as you love me
We could be starving, we could be homeless, we could be broke
As long as you love me

11. Nothing Like Us
[Intro]
[Verse]
Lately I ve been thinking, thinking about what we had
And I know it was hard, it was all that we knew, yeah
Have you been drinking, to take all the pain away?
I wish that I could give you what you deserve
Cause nothing could ever, ever replace you
Nothing can make me feel like you do, yeah
You know there s no one, I can relate to
I know we won t find a love that s so true
[Chorus]
There s nothing like us
There s nothing like you and me
Together through the storm
There s nothing like us
There s nothing like you and me together, oh
[Verse]
I gave you everything babe Well, everything I had to give
Girl, why would you push me away? Yeah
Lost in confusion, like an illusion
You know I m used to making your day
But that is the past now, we didn t last now
I guess that this is meant to be yeah
Tell me, was it worth it? We were so perfect
But baby I just want you to see
[Chorus]
There s nothing like us
There s nothing like you and me
Together through the storm
There s nothing like us
There s nothing like you and me together
There s nothing like us
There s nothing like you and me
Together through the storm
There s nothing like us
There s nothing like you and me together
