The Way We Are Lyrics

So this is you
And this is me
And we just met.
And we're both pretending not to notice that we haven't blinked once
No, not yet.
And this is us,
Strangers, walking down the street
And this is me pretending I'm not cold
And this is you, lending me your sweater,
Smiling, as I thank you.

You can't hide, you can't hide your heart.
I see it stop, I see it stop and start.

I know you feel the way I've felt for so long.
I know you feel the way I've felt for so long.
This is the way things go.
This is the way we are.
This is the way things go.
This is the way we are.

So this is you,
And this is me
And this is us
And you are finally after so many months getting off that train you promised you'd take to come see me.
And this is me
Running to you,
Making a scene,
And this is me not caring at all about what other people might think.

And I can't hide, I can't hide my heart.

I know you feel the way I've felt for so long.
I know you feel the way I've felt for so long.
This is the way things go.
This is the way we are.
This is the way things go.
This is the way we are.

This is you, this is you, this is me.
This is you, this is me on the bridge where you kissed me.

And I know you feel the way I've felt for so long.
I know you feel the way I've felt for so long.
Can't stand to be away from you,
I hate it when you're gone.
I know you feel the way I've felt for so long.
