i used to think i had it made

everytime we said goodnight

this little dating game we played

has always seemed to feel alright

i had my privacy and your heart on a string

its never been my style to ruin a good thing



but lately Ive been thinking a change of plans

maybe get a couple wedding bands

do something crazy

maybe get a piece of land and see

if we can start a family tree

i don't know what's gotten into me

but I've been dreaming bout babies



I know it can be hard these days

to be a family man

I know that the experts say

you need to live life while you can

Ive heard phychology on what makes true love true

and Ive read the books with educated points of view



but lately Ive been leaning more to dr. seuss

reading up on mother goose

seems she's quite a lady

I've been seeing lots of pinks and blues

and little bitty tennis shoes

hearing good night daddy I love you

yeah I've been dreamin' bout babies



I used to dream of fancy foreign cars

and black tie affairs

now we live in separate condos

while we climb the golden stairs



but lately

I've been thinking it makes more since

to build a house with a picket fence

forget the Mercedes

get some puppy dogs and training wheels

and a family olds mobile

I can't believe just how good it feels to be dreamin about babies

I can't believe just how good it feels
