Practical Man Lyrics

Peter Cetera

Ive always been known as a practical man
Certainly one-of-a-kind
Then you came along with the wave of your hand
And suddenly young love is blind
Ill build you a house by the water
Its always been your fantasy
*then Ill settle down for the rest of my life
Now that youre livin with me, oh,
Now that youre livin with me
Ive always been known as the kind of a guy
Who runs off to hide from a dream
But youve got that good one Ive never tried
And nothings as hard as it seems
Ill build you a house by the mountains
Its always been your fantasy
(repeat *) oh, you brighten my life
Fill me with a burnin desire
Oh, you lighten my life
Touch me and Im feelin on fire
Were never ever gonna lose
This feeling that were feeling tonight
Oh, oh
Were never ever gonna let it happen
cause it wouldnt be right
Wouldnt be right
Oh, you lighten my life
Fill me with a burnin desire
Oh, you brighten my life
Touch me and Im feeling on fire
Were never ever gonna lose this feeling
That were feeling tonight
Oh, oh
Were never gonna ever let it happen
cause it wouldnt be right
Oh, oh ,oh--repeat
