People keep saying that you're not like me,
got nothing in common, well, let me see
We've got the same color hair and the same color eyes,
my heart likes yours and yours likes mine.
It only takes a little bit to make love grow,
it's not about your job or who you know.
Don't focus on our differences, instead please see,
The thing we have in common is you and me.
A little bit of this, and a little bit of that,
add it up together, baby don't subtract.
A little bit of this, and a little bit of that,
we were made for each other, and that's a fact.
Your friends all say that I'm wrong for you,
that I'm not your type and I won't be true.
But they don't know what is in my heart,
nothing that they say can keep us apart.
It only takes a little bit to make love grow,
it doesn't matter if your friends say yes or no.
Don't listen to them, baby can't you see,
the thing we have in common is you and me.
We come from the opposite ends of town,
you grew up with riches, I got hand-me-downs.
Your Daddy is the mayor, mine is down on his luck,
Your Lexus puts to shame my old pickup truck.
It only takes a little bit to make love grow,
it's not about fancy cars and lots of dough.
Don't focus on our differences, instead please see,
the thing we have in common is you and me.
