Analysis of You And I



You And I
Author: Mark V. Markov

See the swell tide
Waves so massive wide
Feel the ocean
Feel the ocean breeze
Feel the ocean
Feel the ocean breeze beside you

You and I
Beautiful woman
You and I in love
Are like
Wind upon the water,
Wind upon the water
You and I together
You and I

See the sun rise
See the sun go down
Feel the warmth
Feel the warm breeze
Feel the warm breeze beside you

You and I
Beautiful woman
You and I in love
Are like
Wind upon the water,
Wind upon the water
You and I together
You and I,
You and I.

Feel the ocean
Feel the ocean breeze
Feel the ocean
Feel the ocean breeze surround you

You and I
Beautiful woman
You and I in love
Are like
Wind upon the water,
Wind upon the water
You and I together
You and I

See the sun rise
See the sun go down
Feel the warmth
Feel the warm breeze
Feel the warm breeze surround you

You and I
Beautiful woman
You and I in love
Are like
Wind upon the water,
Wind upon the water
You and I together
You and I...
