The Other Half of Me

I watched you today.
Or should I say,
I watched the other half of me,
do all of the funny little sorts of things,
I like to do.
I watched me laugh.
I watched me smile.
I watched me snuggle.
And for a while,
I watched me do all of the funny little sorts of things,
I like to do.
You listen to me.
You help me breathe.
I am just who I want to be.
And I do all of the funny little sorts of things,
I like to do.
But they just wouldn't mean anything
...without you.

"Wishful thinking I might be yours.
Drifting on every step
I'm always drawn to the dark horse
Sweet sweet, oh nothing's said

And every dream, is just a dream after all
And everything stands so still when you dance
Everything spins so fast
And the night's in a paper cup
When you want it to last

Wishful thinking you might be mine
Every shiver sends
One breath under the bridge of sighs
Bending where the river bends
And every dream, is just a dream, after all"
