First Verse:
When we were younger, and our love was new.
We worked hard together to make it better, like young lovers do.
Now were a little older, weve had a lot to do.
We take each other for granted like older lovers do, but
Chorus:
Half of us is me, half of us is you,
and it takes all you have and all I got just to see us through,
but when you turn away we both start to lose.
Cause half of us is me. Half of us is you.
Second Verse:
When our love was growing we didnt save it up.
We didnt think wed lose it, or we wouldnt have enough.
But then we grew older, had a lot to do.
Loves fire smoldered and the flame turned cool.
Repeat Chorus:
Musical interlude-bridge:
And when we have our problems, when theres fault to find.
We have both got to agree half of it is yours, and half of it is mine.
Final verse:
Just one more thing I need to say.
To stay together, we must meet each other more than half the way.
Weve got to stop comparing how much time we spend.
Weve got to give each other 100 percent, cause
Repeat Chorus and End
