What Shall We Do With the Child
I know I'm not what you wantedNot what you had in mindAnd I didn't come close to the mark you'd setFor the girl you'd planned to findThough we often laugh togetherYou've never seen me cryWe shared but idle words and a casual goodbye
And what shall we do with the childWho's got your eyes, my hair and your smile?Reminding me that we fell in loveBut just for a little while
You never asked about the girl you never knewAnd while she was sleeping in my armsShe never asked about youWithout you seems the only way
But time has passed and nowShe'll soon be asking questionsAnd she'll ask about youAnd how shall I say to the child
Who's got your eyes, my hair, your smileReminding me that we fell in loveBut just for a little whileWhat shall we do with the child?Who's got your eyes, my hair and your smile
