(Bobby Braddock/Curley Putman)
|
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-O-T-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.
|
|
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.
