You and I

When I look up in the sky 
and you search for your one wish,
If all I see are dark clouds, 
do you still dream upon a prayer?
Is it me or is it you...

When my glance becomes a stare, 
and your touch leans to a caress,
Where do I begin 
and when do you end?
Is it me or is it you...

When there's nothing left for me to give 
and there's nothing left for you to take,
Who is left with nothing?
Is it me or is it you...

When all that was fake is real 
and all that is real was fake,
What does it now become?
Is it me or is it you...

It is us
