The Way It Should Be
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Someday I'll have to worry about the car I drive
And if it says that I'm worthy of your spare time.
One day you'll have to weigh the career you've made
Working most every day, maybe I'm in the way?
They say it's puppy love
Maybe that's good enough
They say we're too young, they don't have a clue,
They talk of expenses, I spend time with you
The way it should be.
We talk all night long, carve our name in a tree
It could be cliche, it's okay with me
The way it should be
Some day, we won't make time for the ferris wheel
We'll have to talk about bills and work
And all these things that stop us from talking about how we feel
They call it puppy love, but maybe that's good enough?
They say we're naive, our hearts on our sleeve
They hide 'em away, I'd rather you see.
The way it should be.
We talk on the phone, and laugh all night long,
If that's not alright, I'm happy with wrong.
The way it should be
Maybe you and I won't change
What we think of love. Maybe.
They say we're naive, our hearts on our sleeve,
They hide 'em away, I'd rather you see.
The way it should be.
We talk on the phone, and laugh all night long,
If that's not alright, I'm happy with wrong.
The way it should be.
