simple math

all these people in my life

come in and out like a kite

just bobbing like a breeze in a changing wind

that's just the way it is

numbers never were my strength

and i barely got a passing grade

you teach me

love is simple math

i don't care how old we get

i'm just one and you're one and we're two together

i'm okay being friends forever

you and i were only eight

growing up on the same street

just bobbing like a breeze in a changing wind

oh

when you're just a kid

everything and nothing changes

and now your girls are the same age

you teach me

love is simple math

i don't care how old we get

i'm just one and you're one and we're two together

i'm okay being friends forever

safety pins to taper our jeans

we were raising hell in the back seat

building forts in cedar trees

ice cream banana seats

running wild in our bare feet

everything and nothing changes

and now we are our mother's age

and love is simple math

i don't care how old we get

i'm just one and you're one and we're two together

i'm okay being friends forever

oh

love is simple math

and i can be a total pain in the ass

and i'm just one and you're one and we're two together

i'm okay being friends forever
