You And Me Baby (For Miranda)

Susan Cowsill


Mardi Gras on the breeze
At the end of the day
You swing on that tire
It’s so easy you say
Far away in a land
Green and covered by trees
Just you and me baby
Doing just as we please

Well I had a dream
Wasn’t so long ago
If you hadn’t come true
Well I never would have known
That angels are real
And it’s magic they bring
‘Cause you and me baby
We can do anything

The sunshine’s your laughter
The stars are your tears
The moon’s for your wishes
The night time’s your fears
The sky is your heart
And the river’s your soul
You see I carry you with me
Wherever I go

You and me and that old oak tree
Together we’ll always be

In your dreams
Remember the streets
Of golds and purples and greens

When you stare out your window
At the end of the day
When the sunshine fades to moonlight
Let your heart drift away
And remember the days
Green and covered by trees
Just you and me baby
Doing just as we please
Doing just as we please
Just you and me baby
