Practical Arrangement |
Am I asking for the moon? |
Is it really so implausible? |
That you and I could soon |
Come to some kind of arrangement? |
I’m not asking for the moon |
I’ve always been a realist |
When it’s really nothing more |
Than a simple rearrangement |
With one roof above our heads |
A warm house to return to |
We could start with separate beds |
I could sleep alone or learn to |
I’m not suggesting that we’d find |
Some earthly paradise forever |
I mean, how often does that happen now? |
The answer’s probably never |
But we could come to an arrangement |
A practical arrangement |
And you could learn to love me |
Given time |
I’m not promising the moon |
I’m not promising a rainbow |
Just a practical solution |
To a solitary life |
I’d be a father to your boy |
A shoulder you could lean on |
How bad could it be |
To be my wife? |
With one roof above our heads |
A warm house to return to |
You wouldn’t have to cook for me |
You wouldn’t have to learn to |
I’m not suggesting that this proposition here |
Could last forever |
I’ve no intention of deceiving you |
You’re far too clever |
But we could come to an arrangement |
A practical arrangement |
And perhaps you’d learn to love me |
Given time |
It may not be the romance |
That you had in mind |
But you could learn to love me |
Given time |
