We Got Us Lyrics

Here we are making all our big plans
Jumping, way into the deep end
Hey girl why we don’t just leave tonight
Pack it up drive until the road ends
Feels like this can be the moment
We’ve been waiting on all our lives

We know we’re ready
It may sound crazy
Cause we got no money
Nothing on our own honey
Got your daddy all worried
Cause times are tough
We got love, baby
It don't sound like much maybe
There ain’t way that’s not enough
Cause we got us

They say life’s not a love song
I say everybody’s all wrong
So far, forever sounds good to me
We've got California moonlight
Enough gas to make it to the sunrise
And two hearts believing that's all we'd need
Nothing here’s missing this is what I call living

Cause we got no money
Nothing of our own honey
Got your daddy all worried
Cause times are tough
We got love baby
It don't sound like much maybe
There ain’t way that’s not enough
We got us

Oh, we've come too far to turn around
Nothing can stop us, not now
Someday we're gonna laugh
At the way things used to be

When we had no money
Nothing of our own honey
We had your daddy all worried
Cause times were tough
We got love, baby
It don't sound like much maybe
There ain't no way that's not enough
'Cause we got us
