Crying a river of tears
Since I talked to you
someone that I love
How could you say
what you said
It broke my heart
To hear you talk like that
Especially to our daughter
You may live far away
But you didn't have to
talk like that to her
She doesn't need to hear
that you hate me so
You don't need
to drag her into our fights
She misses you so much
more than you will ever know
Now she has a broken heart
All because of what you said
She doesn't like it
When you speak ill of me
Or when you don't listen and
try to get me to fight with you
on the phone in front of her
So here we are
with broken hearts
When the man we love
hurt us so
Just leave us alone
To mend our broken hearts
