You And I

Forget about the reasons why
 Sixteen years came and went
 Dancing through the summer nights
 We built a love without the cost
 Slow storm screaming on
 Landslides of what's been lost
 You and I always thought we knew
 I always wanted you, I wanted you
 Holding on's what got us through
 I only wanted you, I wanted you
 Forget the endless interstate
 No sleep with stolen kids
 Two years in the North Cascades
 Remember secrets we would keep
 Passed on in winter nights
 Whispering with the dust of sleep
 You and I always thought we knew
 I always wanted you, I wanted you
 Holding on's what got us through
 I only wanted you, I wanted you
 If you breathe, breathe slow
 These bones take their time to grow
 I know I only want her to survive
 Come on over
