The Family Way - Marc Satz

The Family Way Lyrics

I can remember, a night in December,
It was cold outside but then again who was outside getting cold?
It's so warm against my lady,
Couldn't help but ask if maybe.
Maybe it's love or desire but can we give it a go? - and she said ...
(chorus)
"Don't you know that a good time can grow into the family way- ay.
We're only going steady and I don't think that we're ready for the family way-ay.
and it's not that I don't love you but priorities above you stands the family way.
While she was takin' we became one.
To be awakened by a new sun.
You see our feelings were stronger than the warnings that she spoke of that night.
And life went on in the same way.
But 3 months later on the same day,
she got a call from the doctor and the doctor said the rabbit just died; and she cried ...(repeat chorus)
(mid 8)
Well I may never be a great man, turn the world onto some great plan, I'll go struggling by.

And when my stream runs out of water, I'll
still know our baby daughter won't let memories die.......
We got married shortly after, and brought her up on love and laughter.
You see the grass was always greener on the other side, now that side is mine.
The future came before we knew it.
She took her childhood and outgrew it.
Going steady with a fellow, momma sat her down and told her one night.
She sais:"the world may always change but people always stay the same and that's why.
( chorus & coda )
