Anticipation Lyrics

Artist: Carly Simon
Album: Anticipation

We can never know about the days to come
But we think about them anyway, yay
And I wonder if I'm really with you now
Or just chasin' after some finer day

Anticipation, anticipation
Is makin' me late
Is keepin' me waitin'

And I tell you how easy it feels to be with you
And how right your arms feel around me
But I, I rehearsed those lines just late last night
When I was thinkin' about how right tonight might be

Anticipation, anticipation
Is makin' me late
Is keepin' me waitin'

And tomorrow we might not be together
I'm no prophet and I don't know nature's ways
So I'll try and see into your eyes right now
And stay right here 'cause these are the good old days

(These are the good old days)
And stay right here 'cause these are the good old days
(These are the good old days)
(These are the good old days)
(These are the good old days)
(These are.....the good old days)

by carly on 5/28/2008 11:58pm did you know that this was made famous by a heinz ketchup commercial. so amazing
by expat princess on 6/9/2008 6:12am Is that really Carly? see my blog www.expatprincess.com for an hommage to one of my favorite songstress'.
by Mark on 8/4/2008 5:57am Song Carly wrote about Cat Stevens
by artgirl on 9/1/2008 11:16am this was written for cat steevens now known as yusuf islam... they were lovers in the early 70's
by willi green on 9/6/2008 2:21pm Cat Stevens song Angelsea is about Carly Simon. The intentionally garbled refrain, if you listen very closely, is the chorus singing the name "Carly Simon..."
by Cliff on 11/2/2008 6:19pm This song and these lyrics were co-written by Carly and her old friend Jacob Brackman. He was into a Zen kinda thing and wrote this- it is a good song.
by dmotel on 9/27/2009 12:24am This song was actually written about her lover (and husband) James Taylor earlier in their relationship. She wrote it one night waiting for him to arrive for a date.
by jimmy on 10/12/2009 4:37pm Did you know Cat Stevens (now Yusuf Islam) and Warren Beatty wrote this while waiting for a threesome-date with James Taylor?
by Patrick Koch on 10/28/2009 5:18pm Good Stuff
by Irving on 12/8/2009 2:27pm Umm, the ketchup commercial came along LONG after this song had already been a big hit. The commercial had nothing to do with it's being a hit originally. (But did help further sales of the track when the commercial came out.)
