Carly Simon "Thats The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be" by alt1962
A cover of this great song By Carly Simon. Recorded in 2005. All instruments played by myself recorded from my Yamaha S90 keyboard into a Tascam 24 trk recorder. The piano & vocal were recorded simultaneously with a couple vocal parts re-recorded, then the bass & strings were added later. The vocalsr are done by Janelle Finamore. Check out my "Myspace" site for the stereo version. PLEASE RATE!! http://www.myspace.com/maltamiranohttp://www.myspace.com/janellefinamoremusicMy father sits at night with no lights onHis cigarette glows in the darkThe living room is stillI walk by, no remarkI tiptoe past the master bedroom whereMy mother reads her magazinesI hear her call "Sweet dreams"But I forget how to dreamCHORUSBut you say it's time we moved in togetherAnd raised a family of our own, you and meWell, that's the way I've always heard it should beYou want to marry me, we'll marryMy friends from college they're all married nowThey have their houses and their lawnsThey have their silent noonsTearful nights, angry dawnsTheir children hate them for the things they're notThey hate themselves for what they areAnd yet they drink, they laughClose the wound, hide the scarCHORUSYou say that we can keep our love aliveBabe, all I know is what I seeThe couples cling and clawAnd drown in love's debrisYou say we'll soar like two birds through the cloudsBut soon you'll cage me on your shelfI'll never learn to be just me first by myselfWell O.K, it's time we moved in togetherAnd raised a family of our own, you and meWell, that's the way I've always heard it should beYou want to marry me, we'll marry(Marry)
