It's Not Supposed to Be That Way

Song It's Not Supposed to Be That Way
Artist Willie Nelson
Album Natural Renegade

Lyrics

It's not supposed to be that way
You're supposed to know when 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 what you're dreamin'
Or soon your dreams'll be dreamin' you
It's not supposed to be that way
You're supposed to know when I love you
But it don't matter anyway
If I can't be there to control you
When you go out to play this evenin'
Play with fire flies till they're gone
And then you rush to meet your lover
And play with real fire till the dawn
It's not supposed to be that way
You're supposed to know when I love you
But it don't matter anyway
If I can't be there to console you
