Me and Your Twin
4.12.2002 8:22 PM \| Link	This was a "courtship song" for Helen, combining an idea I had about twins living different lives along with the phrase "Never been to Tucson", which for some reason I thought was cool (in fact, for my only public guitar/singing performance with Hue, we called ourselves "Never Been to Tucson"). The twins idea flowed so well in the lyric that I think this is one of the best songs I've written. Verse Some say that everyone has a twin somewhere Living another life And if that's true, she might see things differently Wrong could just be right Walking the streets of a faraway town Where the sun takes hours to go down On a warm Arizona night Chorus I've never been to Tucson But I hear it's a real nice place I wish I were there To meet your twin face to face Verse She'd have the same smile that I keep seeing Whenever my thoughts run free She'd have the same lips that kissed me once That seemed to care for me Maybe she wouldn't be afraid Of memories that haven't yet been made In Arizona she could just be Chorus I've never been to Tucson But I think I could make the drive And me and your twin Might see things eye to eye Bridge She wouldn't think about the future I wouldn't think about the past Dreams wouldn't fade in Arizona Time wouldn't run away so fast Chorus I've never been to Tucson But I hear it's a real good time If I were there Me and your twin would shine I've never been to Tucson But I hope to go sometime If I were there Maybe your twin would be mine
