We Are Each Other (Heaton/Rotheray)

 

There's no more little secrets we haven't yet disclosed

We bore the living daylights of anyone too close

And all our cards at Christmas are written to us both

Count them up who's got the most?

 

Said we'd be close

Said we'd work perfectly

Said that we'd toast

Beautiful company

 

Closer than a sister to her baby brother

Closer than a cat to the child that she'll smother

It's too close for a lover

It's too close for a lover

We are each other

We are each other

 

We've been through all positions and this one's definitely best

You move Middle East and I'll move Wild West

What happened to our friendship we could easily have guessed

Add it up we're self-possessed

 

Said we'd be true

Said we'd be so so proud

Just me an you

We'd shout it out aloud

 

Closer than a sister to her baby brother

Closer than a cat to the child that she'll smother

It's too close for a lover

It's too close for a lover

We are each other

We are each other

 

Remember we went shopping and we went by piggyback

I shaved all my legs and you grew hairs upon your back

Well no-one's ever been since to this lover's shack

It's a cul-de-sac

 

Said we'd be close

Said we'd work perfectly

Said that we'd toast

Beautiful company

 

Said we'd be true

Said we'd be so so proud

Just me an you

We'd shout it out aloud

 

Closer than a sister to her baby brother

Closer than a secret agent working under cover

It's too close for a lover

It's too close for a lover

We are each other

We are each other
