The future glints like the moon on an old slate roof
And everything you say sounds like the truth
The things you did made half my dreams come true
And I wanted to be with you
And I wanted to be with you
Sing your songs of what could be
Of all the things you brought back home to me
And I wonder what the papers are going to say
Another actress, another war, another day
But everything's changed, the world woke up today
And I wanted to be with you
And I wanted to be with you
Sing your songs of what could be
Draw the world for those who couldn't see
And I wanted to be with you
And everything you say sounds like the truth
The things you did made half my dreams come true
And I wanted to be with you
And I wanted to be with you
Sing your songs of what could be
Of all the things you brought back home to me
And I wonder what the papers are going to say
Another actress, another war, another day
But everything's changed, the world woke up today
And I wanted to be with you
And I wanted to be with you
Sing your songs of what could be
Draw the world for those who couldn't see
And I wanted to be with you
