It’s Not Supposed to Be That Way Songtext
von Willie Nelson

It′s not supposed to be that way
Oh you're supposed to know I love you
But it don′t matter anyway
If I can't be there to console you

Like the other little children
You're gonna dream a dream or two
But be careful of what you′re dreamin′
Or soon your dreams will be dreamin' you

Well it′s just not supposed to be that way
Oh you're supposed to know I love you
But it don′t matter anyway
If I can't be there to control you

Like the other little children
Play with fireflies ′til they're gone
Then you rush to meet your lover
And play with real fire 'til the dawn


It′s not supposed to be that way
You′re supposed to know that I love you
But it don't matter anyway
If I can′t be there to console you

When you go out to play this evenin'
Play with fireflies ′til they're gone
And then you rush to meet your lover
And play with real fire ′til the dawn

It's not supposed to be that way
Oh you're supposed to know I love you
But it don′t matter anyway
If I can′t be there to control you

Like the other little children
You're gonna dream a dream or two
But be careful what you′re dreamin'
Or soon your dreams will be dreamin′ you

It's not supposed to be that way
You′re supposed to know that I love you
But it don't matter anyway
If I can't be there to console you
