Missy Higgins - The Special Two Lyrics

Complimentary "The Special Two" Ringtone

I have hardly been outside my room in days,
Cos I don't feel that I deserve the sunshine's rays.
The darkness helped until the whiskey wore away,
And it was then I realised the conscience never fades.

When you're young you have this image of your life,
That you'll be scrupulous and one day even make a wife.
And you make boundaries you never dream to cross,
And if you happen to, you'll wake completely lost.

But I will fight for you,
Be sure that I will fight
Until we're the special two once again...

And we will only need each other
We'll bleed together
Our hands will not be taught to hold another's
When we're the special two

And we could only see each other
We'll breathe together
These arms will not be taught to need another's
When we're the special two

I remember someone old once said to me,
That lies will lock you up, with truth the only key.
But I was comfortable and warm inside my shell,
And couldn't see this place could soon become my hell.

So is it better to tell and hurt, or lie to save their face?
Well I guess the answer is don't do it in the first place.
I know I'm not deserving of your trust from you right now,
But if by chance you change your mind,
You know I will not let you down,
When we were the special two and will be again...

And we will only need each other
We'll breathe together
Our hands will not be taught to hold another's
When we're the special two

And we can only see each other
We'll bleed together
These arms will not be taught to need another's
and we're the special two

I'll step ouside my minds eyes, for a minute,
And I look over me like a doctor looking for disease
Or something that could ease the pain.
But nothing cures the hurt that you, bring on by yourself
Just remembering, just remembering how we were

And we would only need each other
We'd breathe together
Our hands would not be taught to hold another's
we were the special two

And we could only see each other
We'd bleed together
These arms will not be taught to need another
'cause we're the special two
