Don't cry, run along Someday you might understand I see my child Standing over there with you It's a lonely room we're standing in With a lawyer and judge deciding The dividing of our lives Try as I will, I can't explain Just when the thrill turned into pain The love I have for your mother Ain't the same love I have for you, no Though it seems I don't love her at all I'll always love your mom thru you Now go on take Momma's hand, young man Don't cry run along Someday you might understand Grown-ups may change, yes A child will see one thing remains we're family The love I have for you son Is the kind of love that will never stop Although your Momma might find someone else You both will stay here in my heart I see my child Standing over there with you It's a lonely room we're standing in With a lawyer and judge deciding The dividing of our lives
