Carole King Like Little Children song lyrics

I don't remember just exactly how it started

All I know is we're both alone and broken-hearted

It doesn't make a bit of sense to me

Why should two people in love have to be

Like little children who don't know wrong from right

Like little children who just can't help but fight

Why should two grown people have to act

Like little children

There's no storm that you and I can't weather

If we just take the time to talk it out together

But when talking stops, tempers rise

And we both do things that aren't wise

Like little children who don't know wrong from right

Like little children who just can't help but fight

Why should two grown people have to act

Like little children

Now I'm not saying you've got to do

Everything that I say

But you've got to realize

That life is a two-way highway

Let's forget about the past and look to the new horizon

Being happy together is the goal we'll keep our eyes on

Love for each other, we never lacked

And oh, I know that we don't have to act

Like little children who don't know wrong from right

Like little children who just can't help but fight

Like little children

Like little children
