[Verse 1]

             
 There’s no co

      
mbi – nation o

f words
            
I could put on

              
 the back of a

 
 postcard,
             
 No song that 


I  could sing.
            
But I could tr

      
y for your hea

rt and
         
 Our dreams, a

            
nd they are ma

              
de out of real

 
 things,
             
Like a   shoeb

      
ox of photogra

phs
            
With sepiatone

 
 loving.
            
 Love is the a

/
nswer,
             
At least for m

             
ost of the que

          
stions in  my 

heart,
             
Like, “Why are

           
 we here?” and

              
 “Where do we 


go?”
              
And “How come 

     
it’s so hard?”
             
And   it’s not

        
 always easy,
              
And sometimes 

            
life can be de

   
 – ceiving.
             
 I’ll tell you

     
 one thing,
            
It’s always be

              
tter when we’r

       
e to – gether.


[Chorus]

             
   Mm, it’s al

     
ways better wh

en we’re toget

her.
             
   Yeah, we’ll

            
 look at the s

tars when we’r

e together.
             
   Well, it’s 

       
always better 

when we’re tog

ether.
             
   Yeah, it’s 

       
always better 

when we’re tog

ether.

[Verse 2]

              
And all of the

Just might fin

#             
d their way in

            
to my dreams t

But I know tha

              
t they’ll be g

    
one
            
When the morni

               
ng light sings
              
Or brings new 

        
things.
            
For to – morro

              
w night you se

  
e
             
That they’ll b

            
e gone too.
            
Too many thing

            
s I have to do

.
              
But if all of

ind their way
            
Into my day-to

Not so many th

              
ings we got to

 
 do
             
Or places we g

      
ot to be.
              
We’ll sit be –
