Lyrics

Two Rooftops

You disappear
I don’t know where you’ve gone
How could it take so long?
I like things clear
Planned and decided on
Been that way all along

You and I we see things differently
And, at times, though we may disagree
I remember you said
Holding hands is not just for crossing the street

CHORUS:
Then we
Drawn by the artist’s hand
Each from a distant land
Found the same rooftop

Then we
Guided by different stars
Landed right where we are
Our hearts are in the right place

I shape and prune
Tending each flower bed
Helps me to clear my head
You let things grow
Seeing another view
Nothing’s a weed to you

You and I we show love differently
I refine, you tend to let it be
Then I remember how you cry
When you talk about your daughters

Chorus

We found this place each from our own perspective
And we remain in sequence to this day
Though we stumble now and then to find our cadence
I wouldn’t want it any other way

Years go by
Mountain to ocean sand
Still hand in hand
By fate or design
We share a common view
That led me right to you

Who could know two rooftops from the past
Would engrave in us this love at last
And we remember we said
I love you for what I am because of you
