Minnie Riperton - Our Lives lyrics

(M. Riperton R. Rudolph)

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 asleep

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

I Love You
