Only For The Children |
| Give all that you have to give |
| When she estranged you |
| And bitterly blamed you |
| 'Cause she’s so unhappy |
| Give, swallowing compromise |
| Though it won’t matter |
| Your so near the chatter of her |
| Winding up you |
| Somehow so far |
| All the demands that never seem to win |
| You try to withstand |
| All of her mood, her childish attitudes |
| Only for the children |
| I keep love alive |
| 'Cause it’s only for the children |
| My love survives |
| Give though it means sacrifice |
| You feel temptation |
| But your imitation of hope |
| Must satisfy |
| You give, though it means you ignore |
| The lack of affection |
| And constant rejection destroyed |
| Though it hurts you |
| To swallow my pride, toss it aside |
| Though deep inside of me |
| I feel that through life |
| Living this life knowing it has to be |
| Only for the children |
| I keep love alive |
| 'Cause it’s only for the children |
| Our love survives |
| Only for the children |
| I keep love alive |
| 'Cause it’s only for the children |
| My love survives |
| Only for the children |
| I keep love alive |
| 'Cause it’s only for the children |
| My love survives |
| Only for the children |
| I keep love alive |
| 'Cause it’s only for the children |
