1
We could sit beneath the evening,
2
Let the day turn blue
3
I could never let the darkness
4
Replace the thought of you
5
C'mon darling let's catch that train
6
To wherever we call god
7
Maybe it's in Massachusettes
8
Or maybe not
9
It's just you and I
10
It's just you and I, my dear
11
Just you and I
12
It's just you and I
13
Let's keep our boots pointed west
14
Stay left of the police
15
I know you're like a freight train
16
To escape your family
17
You've got a father who has done you wrong
18
And a mother who doesn't care
19
Get your backbone up my darling
20
Let down your hair
21
It's just you and I
22
It's just you and I, my dear
23
Just you and I
24
It's just you and I
25
When all the world turns into hospitals and jails
26
I can always count on your love to be my bail
27
And we'll go traveling on from year to year
28
Just you and I, my dear
29
I've got my backpack full of fourteen cartons
30
Of cigarettes, cigarettes
31
I've got a bumper sticker on my chest that says
32
No regrets, no regrets
33
I've got your love draped all around me like
34
A big black cape, a big black cape
35
All the billboards on the highway say
36
Don't be late, don't be late
37
It's just you and I
38
It's just you and I, my dear
39
You and I
40
It's just you and I
41
When all the world turns into hospitals and jails
42
I can always count on your love to be my bail
43
We'll go traveling on from year to year
44
Just you and I, my dear
45
Well I woke up in the middle of the kitchen floor
46
I was listening for your knocking
47
But you weren't outside my door
48
And I know that you won't be coming 'round
49
In the way I want you to
50
I wish you'd throw your arms around me
51
But this is not for me
52
This is not for me
53
It's not to be
54
It'll be just me
55
It'll be just me
56
And I know I never told you how I felt
57
But you could never understand the blues that you have dealt me
58
So I'll keep traveling on from year to year
59
Just you and I, my dear
60
Just you and I, my dear
61
It'll be the same every year
62
It'll be just me, my dear
