Carly Simon - Coming Around Again Lyrics

Baby sneezes
Mommy pleases
Daddy breezes in
So good on paper
So romantic
But so bewildering

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again
So don't mind if I fall apart
There's more room in a broken heart (broken heart)

You pay the grocer
You fix the toaster
You kiss the host goodbye
Then you break a window
Burn the soufflé
Scream a lullaby

I know nothing stays the same
But if you're willing to play the game
It's coming around again
So don't mind if I fall apart
There's more room in a broken heart

And I believe in love
But what else can I do
I'm so in love with you

I know nothing stays the same (stays the same)
But if you're willing to play the game (play the game)
It will be coming around again

Baby sneezes (I believe in love)
Mommy pleases (I believe in love)
Daddy breezes in (I believe in love)

I know nothing stays the same (I believe in love)
But if you're willing to play the game (I believe in love)
It will be coming around again (I believe in love)
I do believe, I do believe (I believe in love)
I believe in love (I believe in love)
I believe in love (I believe in love)

Coming around again
Coming around again

Nothing stays the same (I believe in love)
But if you're willing to play the game (I believe in love)
It will be coming around again (I believe in love)
I believe in love (I believe in love)
I believe in love (I believe in love)

And it's coming around again (I believe in love)
Ooh
I do believe
