Shoulder to shoulder   Amused, but not advanced   He, she   You, me   It's all just circumstance   Eager, hopeful   Content to play the friend   Timid advances   With mutual regret      She can't always be wrong   He can't always be right   Not a matter of choice   Just a matter of time   Till they know where they stand   Once they've reached the end      Awkward choices   With smiles from ear to ear   A fated union   That won't survive the year   Timeless series   Of blameless accidents   Oh the stubborn cycle   Of inherited mistakes      She can't always be wrong   He can't always be right   Not a matter of choice   Just a matter of time   Till they know where they stand   Once they've reached the end      Ill pay mind where I place my trust   When the desert ends   Ill ask the dust    Ill pay mind where I place my trust   When the desert ends   Ill ask the dust
