About song
The twin vocal just seems to work with solo then two parts in the verse and then together at the chorus. With Jamie's accordion and great drums and percussion. Like a dance, almost a tango, where will it lead? Where will the steps take us?
From the album The Past on Wings, written by Arthur Wilson and Bob Shields.

Song Lyrics
Is this all that, we thought we wanted,
That we demanded, perfect love,
can we see it to completion
Its all for you, will it be enough?
Soft shoe shuffle, burst your bubble,
Lovers' tango, the price we pay,
for one last dance, step together,
across the floor, or save for another day.
Chorus
Is this enough? can I live without the more,
I need to know, before you go and close the door,
Will this be us? or will I always want the moon,
I will survive or can I live with just a part of you?
Perfect picture, framed and mounted,
Like a movie of words you said,
But memories, become x-rated,
Toil and trouble, in our double bed.
What was real, and what was newsreel,
It's hard to prise these sheets apart,
I look for you, in photographs,
and in those secret, places in my heart.
Is this enough? can I live without the more,
I need to know, before you go and close the door,
Will this be us? or will I always want the moon,
I will survive but can I live with just a part of you?
But can I live with just a part of you?
