Peter, Paul And Mary - Best Of Friends lyrics

rate me

I'd like to take you by surprise at the grocery store<br />

Grab you by the hand and step on the electric door<br />

And leave the shopping cart right where it is<br />

I betcha somebody's got the same list<br />

I wanna take us away from all this to a distant shore<br />

<br />

I'd leave the car by the curb with the motor on<br />

The tape deck playin' our favorite love song<br />

And you'd say, "What in the world?"<br />

And smile just like a little girl<br />

And I'd say, "I can't tell you now but it won't be long"<br />

<br />

Well, I know it sounds funny but it's true<br />

I get so busy, I forget I'm in love with you<br />

And every now and then<br />

We need to get away to get close again<br />

<br />

Up in the air in a window seat<br />

Your head on my shoulder and a blanket around our feet<br />

We could leave the kids at home<br />

And if you get worried we could telephone<br />

We need a weekend of fun for under two hundred dollars complete<br />

<br />

Well, I know it sounds funny but it's true<br />

I get so busy, I forget I'm in love with you<br />

And every now and then<br />

We need to get away to get close again<br />

<br />

I know it sounds funny but it's true<br />

I get so busy, I forget I'm in love with you<br />

And every now and then<br />

We need to get away to get close again<br />

<br />

There we would be in a sunny land<br />

We'd lie on the beach and you could wiggle your toes in the sand<br />

A tropical drink late at night<br />

And a midnight dip if the temperature's right<br />

The best things turn out better if they never were planned<br />

<br />

Well, I know it sounds funny but it's true<br />

I get so busy, I forget I'm in love with you<br />

And every now and then<br />

We need to get away to get close again<br />

<br />

Well, I know it sounds funny but it's true<br />

I get so busy, I forget I'm in love with you<br />

And every, every, every, every, every now and then<br />

We need to get away to get close again<br />

<br />

I know it's true<br />

I forget I'm in love with you<br />

And every, every now and then<br />

We need to get away to get close again<br />

<br />

I know it's true<br />

I get so busy, I forget I'm in love with you<br />

And every, every, every now and then<br />

We need to get away to get close again<br />

<br />

I know it's true<br />

I forget I'm in love with you<br />

And every, every now and then
