She left a message after the tone |
|
I hear it over and over on the answer phone |
|
No one can find her, address unknown |
|
She just decided to go out and make it alone |
|
Solo, solo |
|
My little child is going solo |
|
Solo, solo |
|
My little child is going solo |
|
I feel like cryin', I'm in a rage |
|
I can't understand why she just ran away |
|
What made it happen, guess we'll never know |
|
She just decided to go out and make it solo |
|
Solo, solo, solo, solo, solo |
|
We work like dogs all of our lives |
|
Like millions of other husbands and wives |
|
Sent her through college, didn't care what we spent |
|
Think of how we feel |
|
She didn't say, she didn't ask, she just went |
|
Solo, solo |
|
Little child, you're going solo |
|
It's like a pattern, it's like a crime |
|
We see it happen time after time |
|
You raise your children, you watch them grow |
|
Then one day it's good-bye, they've decided they'll go solo |
|
Solo, solo, solo, solo, solo |
|
The toys are forgotten, now it appears |
|
You've let them down after all of these years |
|
Sacrificed all, now there's nothing to show |
|
Ungrateful youth, decided you're going solo |
|
Solo, solo |
|
My little child, you're going solo |
|
Solo, solo |
|
Ungrateful youth, you're going solo |
|
The obligations, all of the ties |
|
Have got to be broken so you can survive |
|
Just because they gave you life, they can't stop if you grow |
|
They can't hold you back 'cause you're going solo |
|
Solo, solo, solo, solo |
|
No, they can't hold you back 'cause you're going solo |
