Two People Lyrics

Two people meet in a crowded room

Both at the back escaping the party

She came 'cause she owed a friend

He came for a drink or two

Both would say they had better things to do

But he lets her sit in the only chair

She smiles and asks if he likes it there

He jokes that he's in his element

It makes her laugh and he likes that

Yeah

I think the heat is rising

Can you feel it yet

Can you feel it yet

I think the heat is rising

Don't say a word

It'll jinx it

She asks if he'd like to take a walk outside

And he practically jumps with the chance to be alone with her

The moon is full and the stars are bright on this summer night

And it seems to add to the glow in their eyes

They share their histories and dreams

Falling in step quite naturally

And when the sun comes up she takes his hand

And they both like that

Yeah

I think the heat is rising

Can you feel it yet

Can you feel it yet

I think the heat is rising

Don't say a word

It'll jinx it

And all he wants is to kiss her mouth

As he leans he feels short of breath

And then he's on the ground

Both hearts beating out of their chest

Doctor says his days have been numbered for some time

And he's got no family left to call

She wants to scream and yell

How could this be happening

But she sits on his bed and takes his hand

And tells him how their life would be

If they'd fallen in love and got married

Travels and adventures

Kids and matching grey hairs

The perfect ending

When he opens his eyes

She knew it was the last time

As he whispers the words

Thank you

She kisses him goodbye
