you and me against the world

Singer:helen reddy

tell me again

mommy

you and me against the world

sometimes it feels like you and me against the world

when all the others turn their backs and walk away

you can count on me to stay

remember when the circus came to town

and you were frightened by the clown

wasn't it nice to be around someone that you knew

someone who was big and strong and looking out for you

and me against the world

sometimes it feels like you and me against the world

and for all the times we've cried

i always felt that god was on our side

and when one of us is gone

and one of us is left to carry on

then remembering will have to do

our memories alone will get us through

think about the days of me and you

you and me against the world

and when one of us is gone

and one of us is left to carry on

then remembering will have to do

our memories alone will get us through

think about the days of me and you

you and me against the world

i love you

mommy

i love you too

baby
