Carpenters - Because We Are In Love lyrics

Children It was more fun to be children We just took life as it happened Run thru the days Don't look behind Over wink of an eye and it's over What a surprise to discover We were people ourselves What kind of people did we want to be No answer ever came to me It didn't sleep at all last night Mom, i've come to you like yesterday About today Mom, i'm afraid Hon, come and sit by my side Listen to me Words come so hard But what my heart says I will give you Because you are in love Your eyes begin to open As if you had awaken from a sleep Because you are in love You use imagination And lose your concentration When someone drops his name You're back in his arms as always Your day-dreams work out that way It's all just a trick you mind plays The more love grows The more it says the same (same little girl who's frightened) But i love him so (same little girl who's sure) That she loves him so (sees with a woman's vision knows what a woman knows) Because we are in love We reach for our tomorrows And know we won't be lonely In laughter and in sorrows Where love abides There is the place we'll keep our love forever You and i Because we are in love When love abides There is the place we'll keep our home forever You and i Beacuse we are in love
