Today, I sat alone, at the window

And I watched our little girl outside at play

With the little boy next door

Like so many times before

But somethin' didn't seem quite right today



So I went outside to see what they were doing

And then the teardrops made my eyes go dim

'Cause I heard him name a game

And I hung my head in shame

When I heard our little girl say to him



No I don't wanna play house

I know it can be fun

I've watched mummy and daddy

And if that's the way it's done

I don't wanna play house

It makes my mummy cry

'Cause when she played house

My daddy said goodbye



No I don't wanna play house

I know it can be fun

I've watched mummy and daddy

And if that's the way it's done

I don't wanna play house

It makes my mummy cry

'Cause when she played house

My daddy said goodbye

'Cause when she played house

My daddy said goodbye...
