D.i.v.o.r.c.e. |
|
Our little boy is four years old |
|
And he's quite a little man |
|
So we spell out the words |
|
We don't want him to understand |
|
Like t-o-y, or maybe s-u-r-p-r-i-s-e |
|
But the words we're hiding from him now |
|
Tears the heart right out of me |
|
Chorus: |
|
Our d-i-v-o-r-c-e becomes final today |
|
Me and little j-o-e will be going away |
|
I love you both and this will be |
|
Pure h-e-double-l for me |
|
Oh, i wish that we could stop this d-i-v-o-r-c-e |
|
Watch him smile |
|
He thinks it's christmas |
|
Or his fifth birthday |
|
And he thinks c-u-s-t-o-d-y |
|
Spells fun, or play |
|
I spell out all the hurtin' words |
|
And i turn my head when i speak |
|
Cause i can't spell away this hurt |
|
That's dripping down my cheek |
|
Repeat chorus |
