F Dm C
There's no combination of words I could put on the back of a postcard
Bb Gm C
No song that I could sing but I can try for your heart and
F Dm C
Our dreams and they are made out of real things like a
Bb Gm C
shoebox of photographs and sepia-toned lovin
F Dm C
Love is the answer at least for most of the questions in my heart like
Bb Gm C
why are we here? and where do we go? and how come its so hard?
F Dm C
Its not always easy and sometimes life can be decieving
Bb Gm C
I'll tell you one thing it's always better when we're together
Bb C
mmmmm its always better when we're together
Bb C
Yeah well look at them stars when we're together
Bb C
Well it's always better when we're together
Bb C
Yeah its always better when we're together.
Piano solo: (F Dm C Bb Gm C)
F Dm C
and all of these moments just might find their way into my dreams tonight
Bb Gm C
but I know that they'll be gone when the morning light sings
F Dm C
or brings new things, for tomorrow night you'll see
Bb Gm C
that they'll be gone too too many things I have to do.
F Dm C
but if all of these dreams might find their way into my day to day scene
Bb Gm C
I'd be under the impression I was somewhere in between
F Dm C
with only two, just me and you now so many things we got to do,
Bb Gm C
or places we got to be we'll sit beneath the mango tree now
Bb C
mmmmm its always better when we're together
Bb C
mmmm we're somewhere in between together
Bb C
Well it's always better when we're together
Bb C
Yeah its always better when we're together.
:piano solo: (F Dm C Bb Gm C)
mmmm mmm mmmm mmmm mmmm
Gm7 C Gm7 C
I believe in memories they look so, so pretty when I sleep, hey now and
Gm7 C Gm7 C
and when I wake up you look so pretty sleeping next to me but there is
Bb C Bb C
not enough time. there is no, no song I could sing and there is no
Bb C Bb C
combination of words I could say but I will still tell you one thing
we're better together.
