My father sits at night
with no lights on

His cigarette glows

in the dark
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

her magazines
But you say it's time
we moved in together

And raised a family of

0111' own you and me
You want to marry me

We'll marry
My friends from college
they're all married now

We'll marry
Their children hate them

for the things they love
They hate themselves

for what they are
But you say it's time
we moved in together

And raised a family of

0111' own you and me
You say that we can

keep our love alive

We'll marry
You say we soar like

two birds through
the clouds
I'll never learn to be

just me first by myself
Well okay it's time we

moved in together
And raised a family

just me first by myself
Well okay it's time we

moved in together
And raised a family

of our own you and me
You want to marry me

We'll marry
