lyrics

So many voices crying out
But only one I want to hear
And while the joyless scream and shout
We can make them disappear
We could be filled with love or hatred
Irreverent or sacred
Starry eyed or jaded
Just you and me

So many voices crying out
But only one I was to hear
And while the joyless scream and shout
Oh we can make them disappear
We could be each other's ballast
Keep every word we've promised
Do everything in harness
Just you and me

So many voices crying out
But only one I want to hear
And while the joyless scream and shout
Well we can make them disappear
Undignified or solemn
Gleeful or crestfallen
The solution or the problem
Just you and me

So many voices crying out
But only one I was to hear
And while the joyless scream and shout
Oh we can make them disappear
We could be each other's ballast
Keep every word we've promised
Do everything in harness
Just you and me
