Maybe If I wrote a song
Maybe you would hear me
And I could reach you
And we could be we
Instead of he and she

I miss you
And you miss me
So why can't we be we
Instead of he and she

The glass is gone
The masks did fall
Uncertainty is there
The world is still unclear

I'll bet if I screamed
With all of my might
You'd hear me in New York
Across the lights

I want you
And you want me
So why can't we be we
Instead of he and she

All that's left is bravery
I just have to scream
And you will hear me
Then through the miles
You'll skate across the tiles
And we'll be we
Yes, we'll be WE.
