When We're Together - Carly Simon

«Hi,"he says

«Higher than the stars,"he says

And «I know I’ve seen you before,"he says

She looks up deep into his eyes and stares

«Where were you into my life till now?»

I know that when we’re together our hearts fall into line

And I know why I’m afraid, this is my first time

And the stars will be quiet while I sing you this song

And I know I’ve been here before, and all day long

«Why,"he says, «run away from faded prayers?»

«Are you so scared that we might not get along?»

Shy, she is, weary to speak of love

And too tired to sleep, too tired to dream

I know that when we’re together our hearts will fall in line

And I know why you’re afraid, this is your first time

And our hearts will be quiet while I sing you this song

And I know I’ve been here before, and all day long

Winter comes, brings with it it’s shortened days

Leaves us less time in between deep nights

And she stays because there’s no time to wait

And the morning stillness still leaves no time for the light

I know that when we’re together our hearts will fall in line

I know why we’re afraid, this is our first time

Our hearts will be quiet while I sing you this song

And I know I’ve been here before, and all along

I know I’ve been here before, and all along

All day long, and all along.

all along…
