YOU AND I, AGAINST THE WORLD
THAT'S WHAT YOU TOLD ME
THAT NIGHT, IN THE TERMINAL
AS WE WERE BOARDING
AND I KNOW YOU MEANT IT
HOLDING MY HAND SO TIGHT AS
WE FLEW, FROM LAFAYETTE
BACK TO PACIFIC TIME
AND YOU LAY YA HEAD ON MY SHOULDER
COUPLE TEARS WERE SHED OVER ARIZONA
AN EMOTIONAL ROLLER COASTER, YEAH
WE RIDE THE HIGHS AND LOWS
WE RIDE THE HIGHS AND LOWS
YOU'LL NEVER BE ALONE
EVEN WHEN YOUR WORLD EXPLODES
'CAUSE AFTER ALL THE SMOKE CLEARS
I WILL BE RIGHT HERE
I WILL BE RIGHT HERE
WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS
I WILL BE RIGHT HERE
WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS
AND WHEN I HIT THE WALL
BACK IN DECEMBER
I TOOK MY HARDEST FALL
BUT WE FELL TOGETHER
AND WE SPENT THE WEEKEND
PACING THE HOTEL ROOM AT
THE WESTIN, IN DUBLIN
NEVER FELT SO CLOSE TO YOU
AND I LAID MY HEAD ON YOUR SHOULDER
BY THE TIME WE LEFT WE WERE TEN YEARS OLDER
AN EMOTIONAL ROLLER COASTER, YEAH
WE RIDE THE HIGHS AND LOWS
WE RIDE THE HIGHS AND LOWS
YOU'LL NEVER BE ALONE
EVEN WHEN YOUR WORLD EXPLODES
'CAUSE AFTER ALL THE SMOKE CLEARS
I WILL BE RIGHT HERE
I WILL BE RIGHT HERE
WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS
I WILL BE RIGHT HERE
WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS
YOU AND I, AGAINST THE WORLD
THAT'S WHAT YOU TOLD ME
WE RIDE THE HIGHS AND LOWS
WE RIDE THE HIGHS AND LOWS
YOU'LL NEVER BE ALONE
EVEN WHEN YOUR WORLD EXPLODES
'CAUSE AFTER ALL THE SMOKE CLEARS
I WILL BE RIGHT HERE
I WILL BE RIGHT HERE
WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARS

RIGHT FROM THE START, COULDN'T PULL US APART, IT JUST WORKS
NOBODY ELSE EVER GETS ME AS WELL ON THIS EARTH

SHE'S GOT BIG BROWN EYES AND TANGLED HAIR
VOGUING IN HER UNDERWEAR
AND NOTHING IS BETTER THAN DOING NOTHING TOGETHER NOW
SHE'S GOT A TOOTHBRUSH AS A MICROPHONE
BELTING OUT THE ROLLING STONES
I'M THE LAST ONE TO STOP HER
CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I GOT HER
WE GET SO CLOSE, KISSING LIKE ESKIMOS
IT'S A LITTLE BIT MUCH
I KNOW, I DO
ISN'T SHE CRA-CRAZY BEAUTIFUL
ISN'T SHE STRA-STRANGE AND WONDERFUL
AND I THINK I LOVE HER MORE THAN I EVEN UNDERSTAND
SHE'S GOT A CLASSIC STYLE THAT'S ALL HER OWN
SMILE YOU CAN HEAR THROUGH THE TELEPHONE
SHE SAYS SHE'S A REBEL, BUT SHE'S WAY TOO SENTIMENTAL
SHE'S PRECIOUS EVEN WHEN SHE'S MAD
GETS ANGRY AND I START TO LAUGH
AND I KNOW THAT IT'S NOTHING
SHE'S JUST PUSHING MY BUTTONS
WE GET SO CLOSE, KISSING LIKE ESKIMOS
IT'S A LITTLE BIT MUCH

ISN'T SHE STRA-STRANGE AND WONDERFUL
AND I THINK I LOVE HER MORE THAN I EVEN UNDERSTAND
SHE'S A LITTLE BIT WILD, A LITTLE BIT MAD, A LITTLE BIT UH OH, BEAUTIFUL
WILD, A LITTLE BIT BAD, A LITTLE BIT UH OH
AND I THINK I LOVE HER MORE THAN I EVEN UNDERSTAND

I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blue
And I will stay
I will stay with you
We'll make it to the other side
Like lovers do
I'll reach my hands out in the dark
And wait for yours to interlock
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
'Cause I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No, not yet
Even when I'm down to my last breath
Even when they say there's nothin' left
So don't give up on
I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No, not me
Even when nobody else believes
I'm not goin' down that easily
So don't give up on me
And I will hold
I'll hold onto you
No matter what this world'll throw
It won't shake me loose
I'll reach my hands out in the dark
And wait for yours to interlock
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
'Cause I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No, not yet
Even when I'm down to my last breath
Even when they say there's nothin' left
So don't give up on
I'm not givin' up
I'm not givin' up, givin' up
No, not me
Even when nobody else believes
I'm not goin' down that easily
So don't give up on me
Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I will fight
I will fight for you
I always do until my heart
Is black and blue

Me and fear, we had a thing in 1993
Told me I was wasting time with all these silly dreams
I dated doubt, she knocked me down every time I tried
But I found joy in my life
Sorrow swept me off my feet in 2009
I took long walks on the beach next to the oceans that we cried
And grief, she came and overstayed way longer than I'd liked
But I found joy in my life


I found joy, yeah, she opened up my eyes
And gave me wings and halo rings and taught me how to fly
Woo, ooh, I feel like a million lights
I found joy in my life
And got me like yeah, oh
I found joy in my life
And got me like yeah, oh
I found joy in my life


Pressure pushed me to the edge, she worked me to the bone
And jealousy, she lied to me, said I needed things I don't
Shame, she had a way to make me hate myself inside
But I found joy in my life


I found joy on the loneliest of nights
I bought a rock, I tied the knot, and I'm making her my wife
Woo, ooh, I feel like a million lights
I found joy in my life
And got me like yeah, oh
I found joy in my life
And got me like yeah, oh
I found joy in my life


And there were days I did not know
If she would pack her bags and go
But that's my girl forever though
And she knows, she knows


I found joy and I kiss her every night
She gave me two more of her and I can't believe they're mine
Mmm, now I'm basking in their light
I found joy, I found joy
Yeah, oh
I found joy in my life
And got me like yeah, oh
I found joy in my life
I found joy in my life
