City lights have all gone down
Quiet noises all around us
As we try to figure out
What our love is all about
You ran away for ten days
Left the three of us to play house
But a house is not a home
And we are all alone

We were fools in love
Thinking love would be enough
To hold us strong until the end
But we're older now
And we got babies in the house
Now we need some foolish love again

Every time you look away
I convince myself to stay around
'Cause it's hard enough as one
And the past can't be undone
Don't forget it, don't forget me
'Cause before I was a mother
I was once your younger lover
Rolling parties in the papers
Throwing kisses at each other
And the memories
Of you next to me

We were fools in love
Thinking love would be enough
To hold us strong until the end
But we're older now
And we got babies in the house
Now we need some foolish love again
Now we need some foolish love again
