I used to think I had it made,
Every time we said goodnight
This little dating game we've played,
Has always seemed to feel all right
I've had my privacy and your heart on a string
And it's never been my style to ruin a good thing

Oh, but lately,
I've been thinkin' 'bout a change of plans;
Maybe get a couple wedding bands,
And do something crazy
Maybe get a piece of land and see,
If we could start a little family tree
Well, I don't know what's gotten into me,
But I've been dreamin' 'bout babies

I know it can be hard these days,
To be a family man
I know that all the experts say:
"You need to live life while you can"
I've heard psychology on what makes "true love" true,
And I've read the books on educated points of view

Oh, but lately,
I've been listenin' more to Dr Seuss,
Readin' up on Mother Goose,
Seems she's quite a lady
I've been seein' lots of pinks and blues,
An' little bitty tennis shoes
Hearin': "Goodnight Daddy, I love you"'s
Yeah, I've been dreamin' 'bout babies

I used to dream of fancy foriegn cars,
And black tie affairs
And how we'd live in separate condos,
While we climbed the golden stairs

Oh, but lately,
I've been thinkin' that it makes more sense,
To build a house with a picket fence,
Forget the Mercedes
Get some puppy-dogs and trainin' wheels,
And a family Oldsmobile
I can't believe just how good it feels,
To be dreamin' 'bout babies (Dreamin' 'bout babies)

I can't believe just how good it feels,
No
