VERSE ONE
Used to fight life’s battles on my own
Getting by but all alone, directionless and aimless
I was the hero flying around
Self-absorbed but even Solo fell down
Breathless before his princess
So now it’s
CHORUS
You and me against the world, against the world it’s you and me
And I wouldn’t want it any other way
I’ve got your back, I’m your biggest fan, I’m in your corner, we take care of each other
Side by side it will always be you and me against the world
VERSE TWO
Used to think as I got older
All my troubles would soon be over
Now I know it doesn’t work out that way
So when the days get too extreme
With struggles, trials, and mysteries
Just take my hand and listen to me say
CHORUS
You and me against the world, against the world it’s you and me
And I wouldn’t want it any other way
I’ve got your back, I’m your biggest fan, I’m in your corner, we take care of each other
Side by side it will always be you and me against the world
BRIDGE
With God in the middle, all our problems are little ones
Before you I didn’t have a clue
He gave me a helper, paired us with each other
Together there’s nothing we can’t do
CHORUS
You and me against the world, against the world it’s you and me
And I wouldn’t want it any other way
I’ve got your back, I’m your biggest fan, I’m in your corner, we take care of each other
Side by side it will always be you and me against the world
