That's The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be (2015 Remastered) - Carly Simon (卡莉·西蒙)[00:00:00]

Written by：Carly Simon/Jacob Brackman[00:00:00]

My father sits at night with no lights on[00:00:01]

His cigarette glows in the dark[00:00:08]

The living room is still[00:00:15]

I walk by no remark[00:00:18]

I tiptoe past the master bedroom where[00:00:28]

My mother reads her magazines[00:00:35]

I hear her call sweet dreams[00:00:42]

But I forgot how to dream[00:00:45]

But you say it's time we moved in together[00:00:56]

Raised a family of our own[00:01:02]

You and me[00:01:05]

Well that's the way I've always heard it should be[00:01:09]

You want to marry me[00:01:13]

We'll marry[00:01:18]

My friends from college[00:01:23]

They're all married now[00:01:25]

They have their houses and their lawns[00:01:30]

They have their silent noon[00:01:37]

Tearful nights angry dawns[00:01:40]

Their children hate them for the things they're not[00:01:50]

They hate themselves for what they are[00:01:57]

And yet they drink they laugh[00:02:05]

Close the wound[00:02:08]

Hide the scar[00:02:09]

But you say it's time we moved in together[00:02:19]

Raised a family of our own[00:02:25]

You and me[00:02:28]

Well that's the way I've always heard it should be[00:02:32]

You want to marry me[00:02:37]

We'll marry[00:02:41]

You say we can keep our love alive[00:02:48]

Babe all I know is what I see[00:02:54]

The couples cling and claw[00:03:02]

And drown in love's debris[00:03:04]

You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds[00:03:15]

But soon you'll cage me on your shelf[00:03:22]

I'll never learn to be just me first[00:03:29]

By myself[00:03:34]

Well OK[00:03:43]

It's time we moved in together[00:03:44]

And raised a family of our own[00:03:49]

You and me[00:03:52]

Well that's the way I've always heard it should be[00:03:56]

You want to marry me[00:04:00]

We'll marry[00:04:06]

We'll marry[00:04:08]
