Joe Jackson Me and You (Against the World) lyrics

If I could be two places at one time
I'd be with you
(Me and you against the world)
I've lost my heart, I'm losing half my mind
But I don't care
(Me and you against the world)

Don't tell me, don't ask me, don't talk at all
Don't help me, I don't know if I can stand
The bitter-sweetness of it all

I don't know, I don't care, don't even hear
What they all say
(Me and you against the world)
There's no past there's no future and no fear
What can they do?
(Me and you against the world)

I'm helpless, I can't talk or even stand
My heart won't start until I get from you
The look that says you love me too


Me and you against the world
Me and you against the world
Me and you against the world

I've read the Bible and those books at school
But they don't make much sense of this
The finest minds are calling me a fool
But you destroy them with your kiss, just one kiss

Me and you against the world
Me and you against the world

Don't tell me, don't ask me, don't talk at all
Don't help me, I don't know if I can stand
The bitter-sweetness of it all

Me and you against the world
Me and you against the world
Me and you against the world
