Together, together
Like a leaf stuck to a tree
And that’s the way it oughta be
With you and me, forever more

Never ooh, never
Do I ever think of you
Without including myself
Lying close to you, forever more

It’s not so easy loving you
And yet still giving you your freedom
But like a butterfly with doubt
Without the room to breathe in
Don’t you think I know?
So I let you go, so that we can stay
Together, however
Close I think we oughta be
We both should try to keep
Our own identity, seperately

Whatever, clever
Plans I make away from you
Disappear the moment that I’m holding you
So tenderly
Don’t you think I know
So I let you go, so that we can stay
Together, together
Give and take boy we can make it
In this world, together, together
Love is all we’re fighting for
And tell me what is worth more
Than togetherness, forever more

Together, together
We’re so lucky that we met
And fell in love
Together, together
Our love is all we’re fighting for
Tell me what is worth more
Than togetherness, forever more
Together, forever
We’re so lucky that we met
And fell in love
Together, together

About Lyrics and Together by Diana Ross

When you decide to study the lyrics to Together, you're looking at the words, verses and background chorus from the 1978 song by Diana Ross. Some of the lyrics to Together have clear meanings and some contain metaphorical references. Like most songs, only Diana Ross and their collaborators know the full story behind any of the their songs.

You can understand the lyrics to Together if you take apart the structure of the words. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Together" means the words set to the music of Together, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Diana Ross. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to Together and the lyrics to Together are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Diana Ross who came here looking just for the lyrics to Together, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
