Better sit down kids I'll tell you why,

kids You might not understand,

kids But give it a try, kids Now how should I put this

I've got something to say You mother is staying But

I'm going away No, we're not mad,

kids It's hard to say why Your mother and I Don't see

eye to eye Say your prayers before you go to bed Make

sure you get yourself to school on time I know you'll

do the things your mother asks She's gonna need you

most to stay in line Keep in mind your mother's gonna

need Your help a whole lot more than she ever did before

No more fights over little things because I won't be

here to stop them anymore I know you don't want this,

neither do we But sometimes things happen That we can't

foresee Now try to be calm,

kids And don't look so sad Just cause I am leaving

I'll still be your dad Just remember I love you And

though I'm not here Just call if you need me And I'll

always be near (Repeat Chorus) Well,

I have to go now So kiss me goodbye My eyes are just

red, kids I'm too big to cry
