Look me in the eyes when you tell
Your little white lies to me.
For I want you to clearly see
What you're doing now.
Our marriage is over, probably
doomed from the start.
Let us say our good-byes
And then we must part.
We'll tell the children how it is
That love has faded away
That Dad and Mom must separate
There's no chance of another day.
Make sure they know it's not their fault!
That crying might ease the pain.
My thoughts will always be with them,
And I'll see their faces in the rain.
I'll go quickly now to ease the hurt
Please, no apologies or words
Enough has been said before.
