There Won't Be Trumpets-Suzanne Henry/Craig Lucas

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 oughta 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 We'll go not too far We won't have to give up a thing We'll stay who we are Right Ok 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 oughta be I'm ready Marry me a little Body Heart And soul Passion as hell But always in control Want me first and formost Keep me company That's the way it oughta be I'm ready I'm ready now Oh how gently we'll talk Oh how softly we'll tred All the stends 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 Ok then I'm ready I'm ready now Someone I'm ready
