You and I
Lyrics by XJ Hall.

verse 1 (performed by XJ Hall)
when ever i need you with me
i know you're always by my side
will we ever be free of eachother?
can't hide a past that makes us bind
but it's okay to see
cause we're going to places we can fly
building empires in my mind
you and i

chorus (enter vocalist / singer)
whatever life shows us, whatever we dream,
will always stay within my mind
where the wind blows, where ever we go,
i already know, it's you and i

refrain
uuoooaohh
you and i
x4

v2 (xj)
i'm going back to chitown
it's as easy as could ever be
and when i leave on the line
and i'm bringing all them home with me
fall in the big city
scraping up against the sky
it will be just like old times
you and i

ch (singer / vocalist)
whatever life shows us, whatever we dream,
will always stay within my mind
where the wind blows, where ever we go,
i already know, it's you and i

ref
uuoooaohh
you and i
x4

v3 (xj)
yo
i'm going home again but it's not the same can't ever replace this
can we ever go home again without feeling friends and picking up faces?
time can mend the past but remember it lasts forever within our minds
wouldn't it be a shame if we didn't die by the things that have always kept us alive?
my heart belongs in that city, my soul belongs to you
and i'll take a strong part of that with me, cause i know that we're one in of two
they say it's a windy place, well we must have blown out of the sky
flying kites by the lake in the summer time
whatever the take it's (you and i)

ch (singer / vocalist)
whatever life shows us, whatever we dream,
will always stay within my mind
where the wind blows, where ever we go,
i already know, it's you and i

ref

ch (sung by choir)
whatever life shows us, whatever we dream,
