| Dear son, how’ve you been?
|
| I got your card and the bottle of gin
|
| What’s new, let me see
|
| Seems there’s no love left between your mother and me
|
| She gets half the house, I’m getting my share
|
| Of half this life we’ve built in twenty-three years
|
| But there’s no guilt, I’ve opened my cage
|
| You’ll like my new girl, she’s about your age, oh yea
|
| Can you blame me? |
| Separate peace
|
| I’ll do what’s right, what’s right for me
|
| And I’ve found my separate peace
|
| Understand me, can’t you see, I don’t care
|
| And son, your mother’s just fine
|
| I see her in the market from time to time
|
| She got drunk, wrecked the car
|
| Trying to get home from the corner bar
|
| This life’s too cold to be straight
|
| I guess a little drink, it helps her escape
|
| She’s gave up, disillusioned in men
|
| But in that little bottle she’s found a new friend
|
| Can you blame me? |
| Separate peace
|
| Do what’s right, what’s right for me
|
| And I’ve found my separate peace
|
| Understand me, can’t you see, I don’t care
|
| Understand me, can’t you see
|
| Let me go, just set me free
|
| Oh son, I almost forgot
|
| Your brother left his body in a parking lot
|
| I guess it happens all the time
|
| These goddamn kids cross the needle and line
|
| What happened, I can’t understand
|
| He left so early, he was such a young man
|
| Oh well, now he’s just gone
|
| And are you coming home for the holidays, son? |
| Oh yea
|
| Can you blame me? |
| Separate peace
|
| Do what’s right, what’s right for me
|
| And I’ve found my separate peace
|
| Understand me, can’t you see
|
| I don’t care |
