Carpenters – Because We Are In Love lyrics
Children
It was more fun to be children
We just took life as it happened
Run through 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

I didn't sleep at all last night
Mom, I've come to you like yesterday
About today, but 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 awoken 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 daydreams work out that way
It's all just a trick your mind plays
The more love grows, the more it stays the same

(Same little girl who's frightened)
But I love him so
(Same little girl who's sure)
That you 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

And that is all that love's about
And we'll recall when time runs out
That because you are in love
To be loved a whole life long

(We know we won't be lonely)
(In laughter and in sorrow)

And that is all that love's about
And we'll recall when time runs out
That because you are in love
To be loved a whole life long
