Anticipation

Words and Music by Carly Simon



We can never know about the days to come

But we think about them anyway

And I wonder if I'm really with you now

Or just chasin' after some finer day



Anticipation, anticipation

Is makin' me late

Is keepin' me waitin'

And I tell you how easy it feels to be with you

And how right your arms feel around me

But I, I rehearsed those words just late last night

When I was thinkin' about how right tonight might be



Anticipation, anticipation

Is makin' me late

Is keepin' me waitin'

And tomorrow we might not be together

I'm no prefect and I don't know nature's ways

So I'll try and see into your eyes right now

And stay right here 'cause these are the good old days

These are the good old days

And stay right here 'cause these are the good old days

These are the good old days

These are the good old days
