Bruce Springsteen - Trouble in Paradise lyrics

You do the drying, I'll do the dishes
Who'll do the crying when all
The wishes don't come true?
You do the washing, I'll do the folding
Whose heart is breaking when whose
Arms are holding someone new?

Sittin' on a peaceful lake sunnin'
Didn't hear the roar of the waterfall coming
When it's all a storybook story
When it's all so easy and nice
Here comes trouble in paradise

You did the dusting, I did the sweeping
You did the driving oh and I did
The sleeping a little too long

On a picnic 'neath the sky so blue
We didn't see the rain
And heartache coming through
When it's all an old black-and-white movie
And you're sure you've seen the ending twice
Here comes trouble in paradise

You said everything was fine
I'm sorry, baby, I didn't see the signs
Oh so beautifully you read your lines
In a play where the hero has no vice
And love comes without a price
So does trouble in paradise

Don't matter who did the dusting
Or who did the sweeping
Who did the trusting or who did
The cheating when it's all gone

Laying in a field on a summer's day
Waitin' for those gray skies to clear away
Knowing all love's glory and beauty
Can vanish before you think twice
Leaving trouble in paradise

Now we share the laughing
We share the joking
We do the sleeping with one eye open
