The Beautiful South - We Are Each Other lyrics

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 an 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 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 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 an you We'd shout it out aloud Closer than a sister to her baby brother Closer than a secret agent working under cover It's too close for a lover It's too close for a lover We are each other We are each other
