The Things We Have To Do
Yes we do
Oh, yes we do
Yes we do
Oh, yes we do
We have to love
We have to cry
We're gonna live (we're gonna live)
Oh, I know we're gonna die
Listen, like the rain, like the rain
Sometimes we fall
Oh, when we do, when we do
We have to get up and walk
The things, ooh the things we have to do to be happy
Oh, the things we have to say
When you want your woman, your woman to stay
Yes we do
Yes we do
Oh yes we do
Oh yes we do
We have to laugh (oh we have to laugh)
We have to dream
And sometimes I know (you sound good)
Oh, we're gonna have a song to sing (listen)
But like a star, like a star we have to shine
All through the night
Into, into the light
Ooh all the things we have to do to be happy
Say the things, ooh, we have to say
Oh when you want to leave me
When you want, you want your woman, your woman to stay
Listen
Yes we do (my love, listen)
Oh yes we do (everybody knows you need pouring rain)
Yes we do (and sunshine too, believe me)
Oh yes we do
Sometimes we have to laugh (yes we do)
Oh, we have to cry (oh yes we do, yes we do)
Oh and I know and I know if you live long enough (yes we do)
You're gonna have to lay right down and die (yes we do)
Yes we do
Ooh yes we do
Oh yes we do
Oh yes we do (we all need a little rain)
Yes we do
Yes we do (we all need our dreams)
I know, I know, yes we do
