a pint of milk–a loaf of bread-a magazine-on special offer
check the weather forecast – buy a new umbrella
send a text message – take a shower
meet me in the park - in half an hour
these are the things that keep us together
these are the things that keep us together
i love you i want you
must have you i still love you
these are the things that keep us together
make the bed – wash the sheets
iron a shirt - try to eat
check for e-mail – send replies
set the video - catch the headlines –
write a get well card –have a cup of tea
think of you again – think of you
chorus
these are the things that keep us together -uh huh
another night with some old friends
i pray that it will soon be over
i’m not listening to them
their laughter floats out of the window
i wish that they would leave – so i can go to sleep
and dream of you again
until tomorrow
these are the things that keep us together
these are the things that keep us together
i love you i want you
must have you i still love you
these are the things that keep us together
these are the things that keep us together -uh huh
