If i were a scarecrow
baking in the hot sun
i wouldn't feel the burn
cuz nothing ever hurts
when i'm by your side

if i were a redwood
in the middle of a rainstorm
the lightning all around
could never cut me down
when i'm by your side

oh i got you
i got you and you got me
no matter where this life may lead
we got we

open up your hand
join me on the hardwood floor
your hoodie and your sweats
your grandmother's dress
you don't dance alone

and when you crave adventure
at the limit of your comfort zone
take on all your fears
i'll catch you my dear
you don't stand alone

cuz i got you
i got you and you got me
no matter where this life may lead
we got we

look at that super moon
shinin' down on you and me
a couple of flowers in a field of weeds
three lil words the simple things
we got we
ooh

we could hit the big time baby
scratch off ticket or brick by brick
don't you know the rougher the rough gets
oh the stronger our love is

cuz i got you
i got you and you got me
no matter where this life may lead
we got we

look at that super moon
shinin' down on you and me (shinin' down)
a couple of flowers in a field of weeds (lyin' around)
three lil words the simple things (i love you)
we got we, ooh
we got we, ooh"
