You & Me Lyrics

I was brought up on a diet of love on screen

Simple tales written by machine

I guzzled down the saccharine sweet candy

I didn't think of what it did to me

I thought I'd simply bump into you

Be drawn to your American style

We'd kiss in the rain once I'd left another girl at the aisle

I thought I'd meet you in my bookshop

Though you were a movie star

You'd live behind my blue door, though everybody knows who you are

It'll be you and me

Straight from the pages of a magazine

You and me

We'll be holding hands by the sea

You and me

Though I know it's never meant to be

You and me

Just let me live my fantasy

My friends they say that life's no Hugh Grant film

To them I say that I'm not listening

I thought I'd kiss you by the curtain at the school nativity play

The crowd would cheer and gasp in shock while we'd simply smile and wave

I thought I'd start a beautiful friendship with your precocious son

He'd show me the error of my ways and that you were the one

It'll be you and me

Straight from the pages of a magazine

You and me

We'll be holding hands by the sea

You and me

Though I know it's never meant to be

You and me

Just let me live my fantasy

I guess I knew that there was no chance on earth that I'd ever be Hugh

I'll never meet you

It'll be you and me

Straight from the pages of a magazine

You and me

We'll be holding hands by the sea

You and me

Though I know it's never meant to be

You and me

Just let me live my fantasy

You and me

Straight from the pages of a magazine

You and me

We'll be holding hands by the sea

You and me

Though I know it's never meant to be

You and me

Just let me live my fantasy
