Only Us by Evynne Hollens Lyrics
[Evynne Hollens]
I don't need you to sell me on reasons to want you
I don't need you to search for the proof that I should
You don't have to convince me
You don't have to be scared you're not enough
'Cause what we've got going is good
I don't need more reminders of all that's been broken
I don't need you to fix what I'd rather forget
Clear the slate and start over
Try to quiet the noises in your head
We can't compete with all that
So what if it's us?
What if it's us
And only us
And what came before won't count anymore or matter?
Can we try that?
What if it's you
And what if it's me
And what if that's all that we need it to be
And the rest of the world falls away?
What do you say?
[Peter Hollens]
I never thought there'd be someone like you who would want me
[Evynne, spoken]
Peter…
[Peter Hollens]
So I give you ten thousand reasons to not let me go
But if you really see me
If you like me for me and nothing else
Well, that's all that I've wanted for longer than you could possibly know
So it can be us
It can be us
And only us
And what came before won't count anymore or matter
We can try that
[Peter & Evynne Hollens]
It's not so impossible
[Peter Hollens]
Nobody else but the two of us here
[Peter & Evynne Hollens]
'Cause you're saying it's possible
[Evynne Hollens]
We can just watch the whole world disappear
[Peter & Evynne Hollens]
'Til you're the only one
I still know how to see
[Peter Hollens]
It's just you and me
[Evynne Hollens]
It'll be us
It'll be us
And only us
And what came before won't count anymore
[Peter & Evynne Hollens]
We can try that
You and me
That's all that we need it to be
And the rest of the world falls away
And the rest of the world falls away
The world falls away
The world falls away
And it's only us
I don't need you to sell me on reasons to want you
I don't need you to search for the proof that I should
You don't have to convince me
You don't have to be scared you're not enough
'Cause what we've got going is good
I don't need more reminders of all that's been broken
I don't need you to fix what I'd rather forget
Clear the slate and start over
Try to quiet the noises in your head
We can't compete with all that
So what if it's us?
What if it's us
And only us
And what came before won't count anymore or matter?
Can we try that?
What if it's you
And what if it's me
And what if that's all that we need it to be
And the rest of the world falls away?
What do you say?
