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. 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. 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. 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. We'll marry.
