Lyrics

Uptown, downtown
There's some talkin' been goin' round
Sayin', you and me, babe, we can't make it through
But I'm near, and love's here
We won't let anybody interfere
You and me, babe, we're gonna make it through
Can't they see that, what we're feelin'
Is loving' deep down in our hearts
Though, love can hurt you, it can mend you
You know, it makes our lives go 'round
Dark nights, it's alright
You know, I'm gonna hold you tight
Take my hand, babe, we're gonna make it through
So if you stay, another day
Darlin' everything'll be OK
You and me, babe, we've got a love that's true.
Instrumental then Chorus
Uptown, downtown
There's some talkin' been goin' round
Sayin', you and me, babe, we can't make it through
But I'm near, and love's here
We won't let anybody interfere
You and me, babe, we're gonna make it through
You and me, babe, we've got a lot to do
You and me babe, we're gonna make it through.

Very nice feel-good song. Nice instrumental, great vocals. Kind of like Jimmy Buffet meets Elton & Kiki Dee. Just a very pleasant piece. Good job.
