Sting "Practical Arrangement"

"Practical Arrangement" from new album Sting “The Las Ship”



Am I asking for the moon ?
Is it really so implausible ?
That you and I could soon
Come to some kind of arrangement

I'm not asking for the moon
I've always been a realist
When there's really nothing more
Than a simple rearrangement

With one roof above our heads
A warm house to return to
We could start with separate beds
I could sleep alone or learn to

I'm not suggesting that we'll find
Some earthly paradise for ever
I mean how often does that happen now ?
The answer's probably never

But we could come to an arrangement
A practical arrangement
That you could learn to love me
Given time

I'm not promissing the moon
I'm not promissing a rainbow
Just a practical solution
To a solitary life

I'd be a father to your boy
A shoulder you could lean on
How bad could it be
To be my wife ?

With one roof above our heads
A warm house to return to
You wouldn't have to cook for me
You wouldn't have to learn to

I'm not suggesting that this proposition here 
Could last forever 
I've no intention of deceiving you 
You're far too clever

But we could come to an arrangement
A practical arrangement
And perhaps you'd learn to love me
Given time

It may not be the romance 
that you had in mind 
But you could learn to love me 
Given time
