[Verse]

Sun’s falling low red streaks in the sky

Old porch creaks same as my sigh

Dog at my feet not a word in reply

[Chorus]

It’s just the two of us now

We’ll carry on somehow

Through the dust through the rain

Through the loss through the pain

It’s just the two of us now

[Verse 2]

Her roses have wilted, dust on the frame

My kids are long gone, don’t call my name

Silence speaks louder than any blame

[Prechorus]

You wag your tail and I see your truth

Your Golden heart needs no proof

[Chorus]

It’s just the two of us now

We’ll carry on somehow

Through the dust through the rain

Through the loss through the pain

It’s just the two of us now

[Bridge]

She’s in the wind she’s in the stars

They’re in their dreams they’re in their cars

But here we are just as we are

[Verse 3]

The sun dips low behind the hill

The quiet begins to settle, soft and still

It’s just me and you, by God’s will

[Prechorus]

You wag your tail and I see your truth

Your Golden heart needs no proof

[Chorus]

It’s just the two of us now

We’ll carry on somehow

Through the dust through the rain

Through the loss through the pain

It’s just the two of us now

[Outro]

My rocking chair creaks like my old bones

My empty rooms don’t make a home

But as long as you’re here, we’re not alone

[fad out to the end]

As long as you’re here, we’re not alone
