Some couples live in harmony   Some do not   Some couples yell and scream   Some do not      But what you said was something   That I can't forget   It echoes in my head   Like a bullet made of lead      Some people yell and scream   And some do not   Some people sacrifice their lives   And some do not      Some people wait for sleep   To take them away   While others read books endlessly   Hoping problems will go away      I know you're hoping everything   Works out   Neither one of us is   The type who shouts      You sleep in the bedroom   While I pace up and down the hall   Our baby stares at both of us   Wondering which one of us to call      I guess it's true that not   Every match burns bright   I guess it's true   Not all that I say is right      But what you said still bounces   Around in my head   Who thought this could happen to us   When we first went to bed      I'm told in the end   That none of this matters   All couples have troubles   And none of this matters      But what you said   Still echoes in my head   And I'm still in the hallway   Downstairs sleeping alone instead      I know you don't care   But here's my last thought   Not that it matters   But here's the last thing I thought      Our little thing is lying   Here in tatters   And you my dear   Don't have any manners      Sad to leave this way   To leave it all in tatters   Saddening to leave this way   To leave it all in tatters   I suppose that we all could say   That nothing of it matters   Still it's sad   To see everything in tatters
