Trouble in Paradise

[Verse 1] You do the drying I'll do the dishes Who'll do the crying When all the wishes don't come true? [Verse 2] You do the washing I'll do the folding Whose heart is breaking When whose arms are holding someone new? [Chorus] Sittin' on a peaceful lake sunnin' Didn't hear the roar of the waterfall coming When it's all a storybook story When it's all so easy and nice Here comes trouble in paradise [Verse 3] You did the dusting I did the sweeping You did the driving Oh, and I did the sleeping a little too long [Chorus] On a picnic 'neath the sky so blue We didn't see the rain and heartache coming through When it's all an old black-and-white movie And you're sure you've seen the ending twice Here comes trouble in paradise [Bridge] You said everything was fine I'm sorry, baby, I didn't see the signs Oh, so beautifully you read your lines In a play where the hero has no vice And love comes without a price So does trouble in paradise [Verse 4] Don't matter who did the dusting Or who did the sweeping Who did the trusting Or who did the cheating when it's all gone [Chorus] Laying in a field on a summer's day Waitin' for those gray skies to clear away Knowing all love's glory and beauty Can vanish before you think twice Leaving trouble in paradise [Verse 5] Now we share the laughing We share the joking Oh, we do the sleeping Mmm, with one eye open
