Think about my little girl Her yellow skin and her dark curl And how her father's heart was frozen I spoke to her, and I said: "You won't regret the mother you have chosen." I lied Where's she tonight? I left him Now we're apart And I think about his cruel heart And how his lies have left mine broken To think that I spoke to him, then I said: "She won't regret the father she has chosen." I lied Where's he tonight? You were precious to me After all I called you into being I wanted you to know that Yes, you were precious to me And I miss my little boy I strayed away So far away And I need him tonight To feel his hands around my face His loving eyes His happy face Would be so right Once I sat in my husband's car Him in my arms Woke up and saw me crying My heart wouldn't work And this, he did my special child He touched my face with his hand and smiled Oh, boy, everything's alright Don't cry, everything's alright Don't cry, Jakes's here tonight Don't hide, Jake's here alive
