You and I

Why is it that you and I can't go without one another?
You, just a dreamer
And I, just a believer.
How did our paths entwine like this?

You used to say "If I--"
And I would respond with "You can."
You had wings that brought you to the skies
While my pride lied upon the seas.
Your fingers touched the piano as if you own the complex world of music
As I insecurely bang on my drums, afraid I would take a wrong step.
You, with that impeccable smile
And I, with my head bowed towards the familiar ground
You were the sunshine
And I was the moonlight.

I should have known that the moon can only shine through the reflection of the sun
Just as I can only ever be within your shadow.

Why is it that you and I can't go without one another?
No,
Why is it that I cannot go without you?
