Our Lives

Our Lives - Minnie Riperton

Any day now can't you see

You'll be coming back

To me

Comin' back

To where you wanna be

And the time that you've been gone

Will vanish like

The song

Sung by the rain when we were fast

A sleep

And our days will be filled

By the light of children's laughter

All our nights will be touched

By the glow of lover's songs

Side by side in the sun

We will build

The world we're after

Side by side

We will lie

When the day's good work is done

Any day now can't you see

You'll be sitin' here by me

Laughing at the fools we used to be

And the things that we've done wrong

Will be now dead and gone

Buried

Out beneath our

Apple tree

And our days will be filled

By the light of children's laughter

All our nights will be touched

By the glow of lover's songs

Side by side in the sun

We will build the world we're after

Side by side

We will lie

When the day's good work is done

Any day now can't you see

You'll be coming back

To me

Comin' back to where you wanna be

And the time that you've been gone

Will vanish like

The song

Sung by the rain when we were fast

A sleep
