The Way We Are

would I need you if I got amnesia?
would you be the one for me
if I lost my memory?
and would I look at you the way that I used to?
would I fall in love all over again
or would I have to pretend?

are we gonna stay the way we are?
are we gonna break and fall apart?
are we gonna make it when our love is tested?
are we gonna stay the way we are?
I don't wanna break and fall apart
are we gonna make it through the shark infested water
hearts entrusted to each other?

and I don't know what I'd do if I found out you were untrue
would I find it in my heart to forgive?
would I be able to forget?
will I be beautiful or will I just be a fool?
can you keep me fresh and young?
what if I make you deaf and dumb?

are we gonna stay the way we are are...?

can we still have adventures when we're old and wear dentures?
will you kiss me on the lips?
do you think we'll dance with our plastic hips?
and when you look at me will you see the girl you met
when you were nineteen?
will you see a lady with a limber heart
swimming in the water with the sharks?

are we gonna stay the way we are are?
