Today
I sat alone
At the window
And I watched
Our little girl
Outside at play
With the little boy next door
Like so many times before
But something
Didn't seem
Quite right today
So I went outside
To see
What they were doing
And then the teardrops made
My eyes grow dim
Cause I heard him name a game
And I hung my head in shame
When I heard
Our little girl
Say to him
"I don't wanna play house
I know it can't be fun
I've watched mommy
And daddy
And if that's
The way it's done
I don't wanna play house
It makes my mommy cry
Cause when she played house
My daddy said goodbye"
"I don't wanna play house
I know it can't be fun
I've watched mommy
And daddy
And if that's
The way it's done
I don't wanna play house
It makes my mommy cry
Cause when she played house
My daddy said goodbye"
