It’s Not Supposed to Be That Way

It’s not supposed to be that way;

You’re supposed to know that I love you.

But it don’t matter anyway,

If I can’t be there to control you.

And, like the other little children,

You’re gonna dream a dream or two;

But be careful what you’re dreamin’,

Or soon your dreams’ll be dreamin’ you.

It’s not supposed to be that way;

You’re supposed to know that I love you.

But it don’t matter anway

If I can’t be there to console you.

And when you go out to play this

evenin’,

Play with fireflies ’til they’re gone;

And then rush to meet your lover,

And play with real fire ’til the dawn.

It’s not supposed to be that way;

You’re supposed to know that I love you.

But it don’t matter anyway

If I can’t be there to console you.
