We Belong Together (Tarzan and Jane)

Steven Curtis Chapman · All About Love [2002]

Deep in the jungle up in the trees in Indiana, 1983

Living on pizza and too little sleep

Just me and my animal friends

Then in the distance I saw through the leaves

A creature of beauty like none I had ever seen

The trouble started when you smiled at me

And our two worlds came crashing together

And a true love story began



~Chorus~

I am Tarzan you are Jane

I am night and you are the day

We're like sunshine and rain

We're so different from each other

You are woman I am man

You are the sea and I am the land

And I would not be who I am if I didn't have you



I know that some days we both wonder how

We ever got together

We're still so different now

But I can't imagine my life without you

'Cause all these things that made us so different

Are just what make us all that we are



~Chorus~



If I didn't have you

If I didn't have you...

We belong together

We Belong Together (Tarzan and Jane)
