Two people together
It was just a dream until you came along
My heart was waiting just for you

Tomorrow forever
We both had these promises for far too long
But now you make the words come true

So touch me now
I need to have you close tonight
And show me how
You can make me feel this way

[Chorus]
You and me
We are the right combination
For love (for love), we're all we need (oh)
It's just you and me
We make the right combination
Straight from the heart, love is the key

Can't keep it a secret
Everything I feel is written on my face
I can't hide my heart from you

You hold me, it's magic
In your arms the world becomes a better place
Now I know what love can do

Here we go
Exactly where the road will lead us
I don't know
I just know that you'll be there

[Chorus]

And whenever you call I'm there
Every stairwell to fall I share
I'll be yours till we love I care about you, baby
It's so easy to see, so strong
Now I know you and me belong
I'll be by your side forever

[Chorus]
