Just because I’m laughing, doesn’t mean I’m free
I know I have hurt you and you know you’ve hurt me
But I’m your destination and you’re my destiny
If I were to leave now, will you come with me
Away from this distraction. ‘Twas just you and me
O’ Stacy, ’twas just you and me
…
The love still remains here. I see it in your eyes
Can we buy a magic potion to rid our lives of lies?
Farewell to all the monsters. Bid them our last goodbyes
When I am sitting with you, all my troubles fly
Away to another land. ‘Tis just you and me
O’ Stacy, ’tis just you and me
…
This home has nothing for me and it will never do
I’ll be packing my bags and I hope to get through
This place has nothing for me. Don’t you feel it too?
I know where I’m going in these worn-out shoes
Away from everyone here, where there’s just me and you
O’ Stacy, just me and you
Nice words, so much love in it. 🙂
