Carly Simon - That's The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be 2 lyrics

Your rating:

His cigarette glows in the dark
 The living room is still
 I walk by, no remark
 I tiptoe past the master bedroom where
 My mother reads her magazines
 I hear her call "Sweet dreams"
 But I forget how to dream

 CHORUS
 But you say it's time we moved in together
 And raised a family of our own, you and me
 Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be
 You want to marry me, we'll marry

 My friends from college they're all married now
 They have their houses and their lawns
 They have their silent noons
 Tearful nights, angry dawns
 Their children hate them for the things they're not
 They hate themselves for what they are
 And yet they drink, they laugh
 Close the wound, hide the scar

 CHORUS

 You say that we can keep our love alive
 Babe, all I know is what I see
 The couples cling and claw
 And drown in love's debris
 You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds
 But soon you'll cage me on your shelf
 I'll never learn to be just me first by myself

 Well O.K, it's time we moved in together
 And raised a family of our own, you and me
 Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be
 You want to marry me, we'll marry
 (Marry
