Not a Day Goes By / Marry Me a Little
[Part 1: Not a Day Goes By]
[BETH]
Not a day goes by
Not a single day
You're not somewhere a part of my life
And I need you to stay
[Part 2: Marry Me a Little]
[ROBERT]
Marry me a little
Love me just enough
Cry, but not too often
Play, but not too rough
Keep a tender distance
So we'll both be free
That's the way it ought to be
I’m ready!
Marry me a little
Do it with a will
Make a few demands
I'm able to fulfill
Want me more than others
Not exclusively
That's the way it ought to be
I'm ready!
I'm ready now!
You can be my best friend
I can be your right arm
We'll go through a fight or two
No harm, no harm
We'll look not too deep
Wе'll go not too far
We won't have to give up a thing
Wе'll stay who we are
Right?
Okay, then
I'm ready!
I'm ready now!
Someone
Marry me a little
Love me just enough
Warm and sweet and easy
Just the simple stuff
Keep a tender distance
So we'll both be free
That's the way it ought to be
I'm ready!
Marry me a little
Body, heart and soul
Passionate as hell
But always in control
Want me first and foremost
Keep me company
That's the way it ought to be
I'm ready!
I'm ready now!
Oh, how gently we'll talk
Oh, how softly we'll tread
All the stings
The ugly things
We'll keep unsaid
We'll build a cocoon
Of love and respect
You promise whatever you like
I'll never collect
Right?
Okay, then
I'm ready
I'm ready now
Someone
I'm ready!
