lyrics

The mood is set with candlelight
I ask myself - could this be the night?
Music gently plays for us
Isn't love when you make a fuss?
The waiter stands at our side
Something in our worlds collide

Four people at the table
Four people, not two
Four people at the table
Can’t it just be me and you?

Walking down along the Seine
Will he take my hand again?
The water sparkles in the light
Does our future look that bright?
How will this evening end?
Do I have a lover or a friend?
In a four-poster bed
This cannot be our life ahead

Four people in the bedroom
Four people, not two
Four people in the bedroom
Can’t it just be me and you?

One is me needing my words to be set free
Two is you who knows what I’m going through
Your dad’s number three, helping you talk to me
Four is my mom who holds my words in her palm

Here we are years from now
Nobody thought we’d figure out how
To live together on our own
We walked into the great unknown
Wrinkled hands held in the night
Who said our future wasn’t bright?

Two people at the table,
Two people, just two
Two people at the table
It was always me and you

Two people in the bedroom,
Two people, just two
Two people in the bedroom
It was always me and you
