About 7 years ago my sister had a CD in her car, maybe a Drivetime type one. There was an American, upbeat, happy song that went something like:
"What about us... what about now... we've been talking about love..."
Or something like that. Definitely not a ballad, not slow. A singalong type.
7 years ago but the song could be older, 1990s or onwards?
Can anyone help please?

The lyrics I mentioned are the chorus, it's kind of rousing and upbeat.

Thank you everyone!!

@Myusernameismud especially. It's Lonestar!
The DC are really happy. The only time ex DH (now dead) came to the UK, we borrowed my sister's car for a month and this was the only CD. We used to sing bits constantly. It's a really nice memory.
Thank you everyone!
