While The Children Play lyrics

I'll sit alone And I'll hear their song They've never known How it all went wrong Little voices very clear And they wonder why they never see you here While I read each day While the children play I see your face And I feel your touch But can't replace What I've left so much And the magic of the sound Just reminds me of the love that once we found So, I read each day While the children play Not long ago, We were young and free Though love should grow, It was not for me Gone is over happiness And you left me here to grieve in loneliness So, I read each day While the children play I don't know where They will ever learn They'd smile again If you just return Though they often see me cry, In their hearts, they won't accept that last goodbye So, I read each day While the children play
