Come home early after class
don't be hanging round the back of the schoolyard

I've been called up by your teacher
she says she can't even reach you cause you're so far

You've been talking with your fists
we didn't raise you up like this now did we?

There've been changes in this house
things you don't know about in this family

It don't make sense, but nevertheless
you've got to believe us, it's all for the best

It don't make sense, the way things go
son you should know

Sometimes moms & dads fall out of love

Sometimes two homes are better than one

Some things you can't tell your sister
cause she's still too young

Yeah you'll understand, when you love someone

There ain't no one here to blame
and nothing's gonna change with your old friends

Your room will stay the same
cause you'll only be away on the weekends

It don't make sense, but nevertheless
you've got to believe us, it's all for the best

It don't make sense, it don't add up
but we'll always love you, no matter what

Sometimes moms & dads fall out of love

Sometimes two homes are better than one

Some things you can't tell your sister
cause she's still too young

Yeah you'll understand, when you love someone

Come home early after class
don't be hanging round the back of the schoolyard

And if we're crying on the couch
don't let it freak you out it's just been so hard

Sometimes moms & dads fall out of love

Sometimes the best intentions just ain't enough

Some things you can't tell your sister
cause she's still too young

Yeah you'll understand, when you love someone
when you love someone

When you love someone, when you love someone
