Текст песни The Provider - Live - Daryl Hall & John Oates

She's the mother, I'm the provider
I'm the father, she is my child
She is the border, I'm the divider
Remember the time that we used to run wild

We were free like a fish in the sea is
When there's nobody fishin' around
To be free, to be what I wanted to be
Spread my wings and you can't bring me down, yeah

I am the teacher, she's my student
She is the preacher, I'm her convert
I am the seeker, she is the answer
Making it somehow, forgetting the hunt

To be free like a fish in the sea is
When there's nobody fishin' around
To be free, to be what I wanted to be
Spread my wings and you can't bring me down

We'd often sit at separate tables
We'd share the same bed every night
Forget the morals and the fables
Sometimes they make you feel
That it's not right, it's not right

She is the summer, I am the winter
I am the poet, she is my soul
Sharing it all because we're always together
Remember the times that I wanted to go

And be free like a fish in the sea is
When there's nobody fishin' around
To be free, to be what I wanted to be
Free when there's nobody fishin' around

She is the mother, I am the provider
She is the mother, I am the provider
She is the mother, I am the provider
