But That's The Way You Are - Coco/1970 Original Broadway Cast/Remastered

You wake up every day
Hoping love will come
Fearing that it may
But that's the way you are

Wanting nothing deep
Nothing that will last
Guaranteed to keep you the way you are
Always sighing for love undying
You go on goodbye-ing
A demon possess-able
But so undressable

Time silences the phone
Empties every vase
Leaving you alone
With your memories of au revoir
Loving could save you
It could have, that is
If you had learned how
But that's the way you are
(That's the way you are)
(That's the way you are)
(That's the way you are)
