  • But there is no combination of words I could put on a post card
    No song that I could sing, but I can try because this is your heart
    Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
    Like a, shoe box of photographs
    Sepia-toned loving
    Love is the answer,
    At least for most of the questions in my heart
    Why are we here? And where do we go?
    And how come it's so hard?
    It's not always easy and
    Sometimes life can be deceiving
    I'll tell you one thing, it's so much better when we're together

    Mm, it's so much better when we're together
    Well it's so much better when we're together
    Yeah, it's so much better when we're together
    Mm, so much better when we're together

    And all of these moments
    Just might find their way into my dreams tonight
    But I know that they'll be gone
    When the morning light sings
    Or brings new things
    For tomorrow night you see
    That they'll be gone too
    Too many things I gotta do
    But if all of these dreams might find their way
    Into my day to day scene
    I'd be under the impression
    I was somewhere in between
    With only two, just me and you
    Not so many things we got to do
    Or places we got to be
    We'll sit beneath the mango tree now

    Well it's so much better when we're together
    Mm, we're somewhere in between together
    Mm, it's so much better when we're together
    Yeah, it's so much better when we're together

    I believe in memories
    They look so, so pretty when I sleep
    Hey now, and when I wake up,
    You look so pretty sleeping next to me
    But there is, there is not enough time,
    And there is no, no song I could sing
    And there is no combination of words I could say
    But I will still tell you one thing
    We're better together

    We're so much better when we're together
    We're so much better when we're together Writer/s: Jack Hody Johnson
