We Belong Together Lyrics

We belong together
Like the open seas and shores
Wedded by the planets floors
We've all been spoken for

If the hammer may strike
Me dead on the ground
And nail to my hand
The cross on this crown
Our comfort is true
The years made it so
I know you
But you don't know
How am I to live?
Why must we go our separate ways?
Be who we are not
We are as we stay
We're done if we're undone
Finished if we are incomplete
As one we are everything
We are everything we need

We belong together
Like the open seas and shores
Wedded by the planets floors
We've all been spoken for
All this indecision
All this independent shame
Still we've got hearts on safe
We've got our hearts on safe

What good is a life
With no one to share
The light of the moon
The honor of a swear
A kingdom of men
Is hollow within
Without depth
Without a care
That it takes to make a perfect love
The passion to find the utter truth
To visualize the straight from the askew
To treat a common comfort more than you
Will you try to live the way in which you speak
Taste the milk of your mother earth's love
Spread the word of the consciousness you seek
We are everything we need

We belong together
Like the open seas and shores
Wedded by the planets floors
We've all been spoken for
All this indecision
All this independent shame
Still we've got our hearts on safe
We've got our hearts on safe

Someday when you're lonely
Sometime after all this bliss
Somewhere lost in emptiness
I hope you find this gift
I hope you find this gift
I hope you find this gift

Cover art for We Belong Together lyrics by Gavin DeGraw

It's that surest of sure feelings that burns within you, no matter how much it hurts to realize it, that you and this certain someone were just meant to be together, despite the obstacles that the two of you may face. Though lovers are constantly reminded that they may in fact just be fools in love, there is always that gut feeling that we all get in the beginning that we are all right, and in any relationship it is what we all must hold onto (: The fact that this song was chosen for one of my all-time favorite movies, Tristan + Isolde, just reiterates all that I've just said... Such a sad & heartbreaking story that beats to the very core of love. It's undeniable. Who hasn't felt this way once or twice in their lives? Keep that feeling no matter what. Your gut instinct, your first thought, is always the right one. Don't let anyone tell you any differently.

Here are the proper lyrics taken directly from his album..

We belong together Like the open seas and shores Wedded by the planet floors We've all been spoken for

The hammer may strike Me dead on the ground A nail to my hand A cross on this crown But we're done if we're undone Finished if we are incomplete

As one we are everything We are everything we need

Chorus

What good is a life With no one to share The light of the moon The honor of a swear A kingdom of man Is hollow within Without Depth Without the care That it takes to make a perfect love The passion to find the utter truth To visualize the straightened from the skewed To trade a common comfort for a view

Will you try to live the way of which you speak Taste the milk of your Mother Earth's love Spread the word of consciousness you seek We are everything we need

Chorus

All this indecision All this independent strain Still we've got our hearts on save We've got our hearts on save

Someday when you're lonely Sometime after all this bliss Somewhere lost in emptiness I hope you find this gift

This is by far the best song Gavin Degraw has ever penned and performed. And obviously, hands down, my new favorite song by him.

While I enjoy most of the songs off Gavin's albums, he sometimes sacrifices lyrical content for something that sounds catchy, yet doesn't quite make sense (i.e.- Chariot). BUT, this song is absolutely amazing. He sings it with a convincing amount of anguish and passion, using his voice to his advantage, and Gavin never strays away from the message of the song- that being that these two people are nothing without each other, that their love binds them together until their ends.

Just a wonderful, wonderful piece of work.
