We Are Each Other by Paul Heaton and David Rotheray
There's no more little secrets we haven't yet disclosed
We bore the living daylights of anyone too close
And all our cards at Christmas are written to us both
Count them up who's got the most?
Said we'd be close
Said we'd work perfectly
Said that we'd toast
Beautiful company
Closer than a sister to her baby brother
Closer than a cat to the child that she'll smother
It's too close for a lover
It's too close for a lover
We are each other
We are each other
We've been through all positions and this one's definitely best You move Middle East and I'll move Wild West What happened to our friendship we could easily have guessed Add it up we're self-possessed
Said we'd be true Said we'd be so so proud Just me and you We'd shout it out aloud
Closer than a sister to her baby brother Closer than a cat to the child that she'll smother It's too close for a lover It's too close for a lover We are each other We are each other
N/C Remember we went shopping and we went by piggyback I shaved all my legs and you grew hairs upon your back Well no-one's ever been since to this lovers' shack It's a cul-de-sac
Said we'd be close Said we'd work perfectly Said that we'd toast Beautiful company
Said we'd be true Said we'd be so so proud Just me and you We'd shout it out aloud
Closer than a sister to her baby brother Closer than a secret agent working undercover It's too close for a lover It's too close for a lover We are each other We are each other

There's no more little secrets we haven't yet disclosed
We bore the living daylights of anyone too close
And all our cards at Christmas are written to us both
Count them up, who's got the most
Said we'd be close
Said we'd work perfectly
Said that we'd toast
Beautiful company
Closer than a sister to her baby brother
Closer than a cat to the child that she'll smother
It's too close for a lover
It's too close for a lover
We are each other
We are each other
We've been through all positions and this one's definitely best
You move Middle East and I'll move Wild West
What happened to our friendship we could easily have guessed
Add it up, we're self-posessed
Said we'd be true
Said we'd be so so proud
Just me and you
We'd shout it out aloud
Closer than a sister to her baby brother
Closer than a cat to the child that she'll smother
It's too close for a lover
It's too close for a lover
We are each other
We are each other
NO CHORDS Remember we went shopping and we went by piggyback
I shaved all my legs and you grew hairs upon your back
Well no-one's ever been since to this lover's shack
