The Power of Two - Neil Diamond

The Power of Two Lyrics

It was getting deeper into the night
Knew you weren't coming home
Nothing I was doing was right and now
I've got to face it aloneThe night getting darker baby the darker it got
Struggled with why and what
But I could not fight what I knew was true I was
Not going to get through the nightWithout the power of two
Me and youFeeling like I'm out on a ledge standing
With my back to the wall l use to be I'd go straight ahead
Now I'm going nowhere at all
The night getting longer baby the longer it went
Just didn't make any senseCouldn't see couldn't hear didn't know what to do
Was like I had no power at allWithout the power of two
Me and YouI never knew before that two was more then one and one
Until that night
There's nothing I could do but think of how I'm losing you
And it shook me it shock me
You locked me out thereLooking for a place I could hide

Searching for a corner to turn
Left me here alone for one night
Showed me I had something to learn
I tried not to need you but I needed you anywayIt wouldn't be easy to say
But the way that I see it I'm half without you
And I'm not going to make myself wholeWithout the power of two
Me and youMorning couldn't wait
I knew that it was getting late
But I hung on I had no choice at all
It was either walk away or crawl and
I'm Bleeding I'm BleedingI think I'm falling deeper into that hole
Deeper then I thought I could get
Like a bug that's stuck in a bowl climbing out is impossible
Yet he keeps trying harder,
Harder then he thought he couldI finally understood
I could hear I could see and the truth came through
We had ten time the power of oneWe had the power of two
Me and you
There's nothing we couldn't do
Just me and you
We had the power of two
