Making our moves, turning the wheel,
Trying to hide the things we feel,
Playing the game, passing the blame,
It isn't enough to pretend, to make out our hearts are hard,
In our own hands, we hold all the cards.

It has to be you, has to be me, it has to be everyone together,
It has to be you, has to be you; we're all trying to make it better,
It has to be you, and it has to be me,
're so blind that we can't see that it has to be you, it has to be me.

Isn't it sad' Isn't it strange'
We say we need rearrange; but never ourselves, always somebody else,
Another defence, another excuse, pointing the finger where we choose,
We just don't believe it's ourselves we deceive.

It has to be you, has to be me, it has to be everyone together,
It has to be you, has to be you; we're all trying to make it better,
It has to be you, it has to be me,
We're so blind that we can't see that it has to be you, yeah, and it's got to be me.

See how we live: each to his own, everyone scared to be alone,
Still we go on as though nothing was wrong.

It has to be you, has to be me, oh, everyone together,
It has to be you, has to be you; we're all trying to make it better,
It has to be you, it has to be me,
We're so blind that we can't see that it has to be you, it's got to be me.

If it's gonna get better, we've got to get together,
It has to be you, and it has to be me,
If it's gonna get better, we've got to get together,
It has to be you, and it has to be me,
If it's gonna get better, we've got to get together,
Oh, it's got to be you and me,
If it's gonna get better, we've got to get together,
Oh, you and me together,
If it's gonna get better, we've got to get together,
Yes, it has to be you, and it has to be me,
