| Our little boy is four years old and 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
|
| Tear the heart right out of me
|
| Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E becomes final today
|
| Me and little J-O-E will be goin' away
|
| I love you both and it 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 Christmas or his 5th Birthday
|
| And he thinks C-U-S-T-O-D-Y spells fun or play
|
| I spell out all the hurtin' words, and turn my head when I speak
|
| 'Cause I can’t spell away this hurt
|
| That’s drippin' down my cheek |
