Your Mother and I are living apart I know that seems stupid, but we weren't very smart You'll stay with her, I'll visit you At Christmas, on weekends, the summertime too Your Mother and I are not getting along Somehow somewhere something went wrong Everything changes, time takes it's toll Your folks fell in love, loves a very deep hole Your Mother and I will do all we can do To work this thing out and to take care of you Families get broken, I know it's a shame It's nobody's fault, you're not to blame Your Mother and I are both feeling bad Things will get better, It won't stay this sad And I hope when you grow up, one day you'll see Your parents are people, that's all we can be Your Mother and I
