lyrics

I was born in the 30s
So simple and clean
Lines of perfection, you built what you need
You never once mentioned
The need for suspension
Just someone so solid
Just something concrete

I carry you over (I carry you over) the deepest waters (the deepest waters)
I’m arching my back (I’m arching my back), I wait for your still (I wait for you still),
The way that you wanted (the way that you wanted), I never flaunted (I never flaunted)
But what if I falter? I know that you won’t need me

But what about us?
What about us?
What about us?
I know that you won’t need me

But what about us?
What about us?
What about us?
And this story that you lead

As time carried over
Support grew so weak
I know that you noticed, our future was bleak
I wasted and wondered
If our days were numbered
But baby I need you
My steel’s unchanged

You wonder about him (you wonder about him), it’s in your eyes (it’s in your eyes)
But we’re so timeless (but we’re so timeless), don’t you realize? (don’t you realize?)
I can be useful (I can be useful), but baby don’t leave (but baby don’t leave)
I know that he’s stronger, I know that you don’t need me

But what about us?
What about us?
What about us?
I know that you don’t need me

But what about us?
What about us?
What about us?

I’m strong and I’m breaking
I’m here and I’m vacant
Withstanding the rages of time
You know I’ll be waiting for you

What about us?
What about us?
I know that you don’t need me

But what about us?
What about us?
What about us?
I know that you don’t need me

But what about us?
