Lyrics

[Chorus 1]

You and me are the world, she said

Nothing else is real

The two of us is all there is

The rest is just a dream

[Verse 1]

Always meant to be, I can feel it

Like a destiny thing written in the stars

Inescapable fate, yeah, it's out of my hands

Falling into your arms

And I don't want to get innocent

But I would love you to take my time

We're on the edge of a beautiful thing, she said

Come on, let's stay here for awhile

[Pre-Chorus 1]

Ooh girl, he is the one for sure

Ooh girl, he is the perfect boy

[Chorus 2]

Yeah, me and you are a world, he said

But not the only one I need

The two of us is never all there is

That doesn't happen for real

[Verse 2]

If it was meant to be us, it was meant to be now

Don't see the sense in wasting time

If you're so sure about this

(Long kismet hearty thing)

You know tonight you're mine

And I don't want to get obvious

But I have to be gone by three

We're on the edge of a beautiful thing, he said

So come on, jump with me

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Ooh girl, he's not the one for sure

Ooh girl, he's not so wonderful

Ooh girl, he's not the one for sure

Ooh girl, he's not the perfect boy at all

[Chorus 1]

You and me are the world, she said

Nothing else is real

The two of us is all there is

The rest is just a dream

[Outro]

And her heart may be broken a hundred times

But the hurt will never destroy

Her hope, the happy ever after girl

One day finds the perfect boy
