10cc - For You And I lyrics

The world is full

Of other people (ooh, ooh)

Take a look around

We're quick to laugh when

They've got troubles (ooh, ooh)

And we put 'em down

We go

We're not so hot, you know

It's like a roller coaster

On a downward motion

On a one way street

We can't control our feet

We're on the road to ruin

Don't know what we're doing

She may be quiet

She may be shy

But don't you bring her down

Don't pass her by

The world of wisdom

Behind her eyes

Could answer everything

But you and I

We seem to wander in

A daydream (ooh, ooh)

We never look around

The world is full of

Other people (ooh, ooh)

And we put 'em down

We go

We're not so hot you know

It's like a roller coaster

On a downward motion

On a one way street

We can't control our feet

We're on the road to ruin

Don't know what we're doing

She's not beautiful

Don't make it plain

You underestimate

It's not a game

A heart of gold

Behind the drab

Would comfort anyone

But you and I

Should try to see it

From the other side (ooh)

We'll get a shock

It could surprise you

The world is full of

Other people (ooh, ooh)

Take a look around

We set the pace while

Others listen (ooh, ooh)

Never make a sound

The rain must fall

But we can change

Our understanding

Will remain

So take a moment

To wonder why

The world keeps turning

For you and I
