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 those other little children

You're gonna dream a dream or two

But be careful what you're dreaming

'Cause soon your dreams will 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 anyway

If I can't be there to console you

When you go out to play this evening

You play with fireflies till they're gone

And then rush to meet your lover

And play with real fire till 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

When you go out to play this evening

You play with fireflies till they're gone

And then rush to meet your lover

And play with real fire till 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
