Read the lyrics to Joan Franka’s “You and Me”—Holland’s entry for Eurovision 2012.
I was five, you were three
We were dancing in the street
And you looked just like an angel
You looked up and saw the skies
Saw the birds and wondered why
They can fly away so high
In the morning I would wake
And my heart just couldn’t wait
To play in your backyard
In the evening I would go
Telling you I love you so
And I couldn’t wait to see you again
It’s you and me and everybody out there
And I can sing that everybody knows
About you and me but I don’t really care for it
I can sing that everybody knows about us
We grew up all in love
Thanking God up above
That we could be together forever
We would never say goodbye
‘Cause we promised you and I
But the love couldn’t handle time
And I see you walking by
My heart would wonder why
We don’t play around no more
Such a shame we have no time
They were wrong, we were right
I still love you, and in my mind
It’s you and me and everybody out there
And I can sing that everybody knows
About you and me but I don’t really care for it
I can sing that everybody knows about us
So I’m lying in bed thinking about the old days
Thinking about it all and calling out sometimes
Was it wrong or right, was I good enough?
It’s you and me and everybody out there
And I can sing that everybody knows
About you and me and everybody out there
And I can sing that everybody knows
About you and me but I don’t really care for it
I can sing that everybody knows about us
