Power Of Two

Now the parking lot is empty
Everyone's gone someplace
I pick you up
And in the trunk I've packed
A cooler
And a two day suitcase
'Cause there's a place
We like to drive
Way out in the country
Five miles out of the city
Limit we're singin'
And your hand's upon my knees
So we're ok, we're fine
Baby I'm here
To stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts
From your head
I'm stronger
Than the monster
Beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks
Played on your heart
Look at them together
Then we'll take them apart
Adding up the total
Of a love that's true
Multiply life
By the power of two
I know the things
That I am afraid of
I'm not afraid to tell
And if we ever leave a legacy
It's that
We loved each other well
'Cause I've seen the shadows
Of so many people
Trying on the treasures of youth
But a road fancy
And fast ends in a fatal crash
And I'm glad we got off
To tell you the truth
'Cause we're ok, we're fine
Baby I'm here
To stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts
From your head
I'm stronger
Than the monster
Bbeneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks
Played on your heart
Look at them together
Then we'll take them apart
Adding up the total
Of a love that's true
Multiply life
By the power of two
All the shiny
Little trinkets of temptation
Something new instead
Of something old
But all you gotta do is
Scratch beneath the surface
And it's fool's gold
Fool's gold
Now we're talking about
A difficult thing
And your eyes are getting wet
I took us for better
And I took us for worse
And don't you ever forget it
Now there's steel bars
Between me and a promise
Suddenly bend with ease
And the closer
I'm bound in love to you
The closer I am to free
So we're ok, we're fine
Baby I'm here
Tto stop your crying
Chase all the ghosts
From your head
I'm stronger
Than the monster
Beneath your bed
Smarter than the tricks
Played on your heart
Look at them together
Then we'll take them apart
Adding up the total
Of a love that's true
Multiply life
By the power of two
