We went to the same elementary school You were in the second grade, I was in third And our world was small I would only chase the girls in my class at recess You kept to the boys in your grade Now we wonder where we just might be If a friendship were made Maybe we'd be rich, maybe we'd be poor Maybe we'd be sailing to a tropical shore Maybe I would ride horses, maybe you would sing. Maybe we'd fly, maybe we'd crawl, But baby I'm sure we'd have travelled far Or maybe we'd be right where we are And that's just fine But maybe we'd have been, and then been done And maybe we would have been over even before it'd begun And maybe I'd be singing these songs to no one. So baby I'll take us as we are This is the best of all possible worlds by far Anything else, I just can't wrap my head around 'Cuz maybe you'd be rich, and I would be poor And we could never sail to those tropical shores; I would never see you ride and you would never hear me sing Maybe you would fly too high while I crawl, Maybe I'd have packed up and travelled too far away But baby I'd rather be right where we are Because you're mine Yeah baby I'd rather be right where we are Because you're mine. |
