What are you listening to? Part 13

I heard this song on the radio a couple years ago and thought, "This would be a hilarious wedding song."

 

Of course, I'm probably the only one who would think so, besides my boyfriend. All of the wedding guests would probably look stricken upon hearing it, and that would kill the humor.

 

You'd need a special group of people for a joke like this to go over well.

 

Still a funny idea, though.

 

 

"That's The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be"

 

My father sits at night with no lights on

His cigarette glows in the dark.

The living room is still;

I walk by, no remark.

I tiptoe past the master bedroom where

My mother reads her magazines.

I hear her call sweet dreams,

But I forgot how to dream.

 

But you say it's time we moved in together

And raised a family of our own, you and me -

Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be:

You want to marry me, we'll marry.

 

My friends from college they're all married now;

They have their houses and their lawns.

They have their silent noons,

Tearful nights, angry dawns.

Their children hate them for the things they're not;

They hate themselves for what they are-

And yet they drink, they laugh,

Close the wound, hide the scar.

 

But you say it's time we moved in together

And raised a family of our own, you and me -

Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be:

You want to marry me, we'll marry.

 

You say we can keep our love alive

Babe - all I know is what I see -

The couples cling and claw

And drown in love's debris.

You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds,

But soon you'll cage me on your shelf -

I'll never learn to be just me first

By myself.

 

Well O.K., it's time we moved in together

And raised a family of our own, you and me -

Well, that's the way I've always heard it should be,

You want to marry me, we'll marry,

We'll marry.

I feel like this one came out right when I kind of needed it. It brings me to tears because even though it's being sung to his girlfriend it makes me think about my kids and how they would do the same thing for me that his girlfriend is trying to do for him.

For a Brazilian she really has it with the accent. She sounds similar to Amy Lee. I am always impressed with people who can learn different accents, I am dumb as a rock when it comes to accents. Damn, not even one talent..
