It Takes 2 Songtext
von Loudon Wainwright III

I have you to help me through
Each and every day
So lucky that we′re not alone
That's what I have to say
And if you weren′t here
It's unclear, just what the hell I'd do
When things get rough, one′s not enough
These days, it takes 2

2 for the road
We should have known
2 when it′s time for tea
It takes 2 to bugaloo, yeah
2 is company

Can't you see it′s you and me
If we are to get through?
One's not the cure, that′s for sure
These days, it takes 2


'Til all of this blows over
And the wheel gets back on track
Sure hope that higher power
Kicks in and has our back

These strange days seem worse and crazy
They feel downright grey
Things get worse, like we′ve been cursed
One chances sure seem slim

And that royal we is not just me now
Yeah, it's me and you
One man got it, it's a lie
These days, it takes 2

′Til of this blows over
And the wheel gets back on track
Sure hope that higher power
Kicks in and has our back

I have you to help me through
Each and every day
So lucky that I′m not alone
That's all I have to say


And if you weren′t here
It's unclear, just what the hell I′d do
When things get rough, one's not enough
These days it takes 2

When things get rough, one′s not enough
Thank God I have you

These days, it takes 2
