lyrics

Three months in
We've told all our friends that you and I are happier.
And it's been decided
You'll keep the house and I will keep my pictures.
Our daughter will wobble her bike down the street.
I'll take a deep breath and you'll say something sweet.
God Willing.

And she will be so glad to have a weekend with her dad.
And I'll feel lucky to see you.
But she won't understand why you won't hold my hand.
So I'll tell her it's just a grown-up thing we do.

Torn up postcards.
Tickets to some romantic movie we loved to hate.
Extra fish in the freezer.
The voicemail that you left when I was running late.
Yeah, Daddy's new life is far from sublime
But it'll work out if he gives it some time.
God Willing.

The laundry will get done, and the bar tab will be run.
I'll keep my methods far from view.
I will toss and I will turn
As I watch our daughter learn
All the twisted, sordid, damaged, morbid, vain, and childish
Grown-up things we do.
