[Verse 1]
In an empty room or a downtown bar
'Cross the universe, there's no place too far
Ya wherever you are, you and me

[Chorus 1]
Thick as thieves

[Verse 2]
Well it ain't always pretty, sometimes it got rough
Could have thrown the towel in and thrown our hands up
Seems like we've always been and always will be

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]
Time, time won't ever drag us down
You, me, us, ain't looking back or turning around
It's classic boy meets girl, with our backs against the world
You and me

[Chorus 1]

[Verse 3]
In a world without faith, you're what I believe
When they're stacking the deck
You're the card up my sleeve in my hour of need
You and me, yeah

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]

[Chorus 1]

[Verse 4]
If I robbed a bank you wouldn't care
You'd come sit on my lap in the electric chair
And when they flipped the switch, huh, we'd just kiss

I know nothing's gonna stop us now
You, me, us, on the edge and never looking down
What's a boy to do, it's classic me and you
Lucky you, lucky me

[Chorus 1]
