We Couldn't Tell a Child (with Priscilla Mitchell) lyrics

We weren't afraid to face the world but we couldn't tell a child I'm glad that I have told you all about her (and I told you about him without a doubt) Our cheating's reached the point it's breaking up our home And there's one who's got to know that we've left out How can you tell a child you don't love his mommie (If I say I don't look back would he realize) We didn't care who knew about the way we live We weren't afraid to face the world but we couldn't tell a child We've known for so long our love was over But there's one thing that we've just pushed aside We couldn't tell the one that needed most to know We weren't afraid to face the world but we couldn't tell a child We weren't afraid to face the world but we couldn't tell a child
