"Tell A Son" lyrics

"Tell A Son"

I was five, living life, everyday's a Friday
Start the day on the couch, Disney on TV
Tie my shoes on my own, get my backpack ready
Running fast through the woods
Screaming Mum, "Catch me if you can", mm

In every single photograph
I'm smiling next to you and Dad, yeah

Sometimes, love make you hurt
'Cause it don't always work out the way that you want
Sometimes, two separate homes
Might be working a little better than one
I still remember the day and the look on your face
And the fear in your voice
'Cause how do you tell a son
Mum don't love Daddy no more

Turning ten, gathered friends for a birthday party
For the first time, I showed them my Father's house, mm
Another week, pack my bag, see him sad, tell my Dad, "I'm sorry"
It's my mum's turn to have me this Christmas, I hope that's fine

In every recent photograph
It's always either Mum or Dad, no, no-no

Sometimes, love make you hurt
'Cause it don't always work out the way that you want
Sometimes, two separate homes
Might be working a little better than one
I still remember the day and the look on your face
And the fear in your voice
'Cause how do you tell a son
Mum don't love Daddy no more

How do you tell a son?
How do you tell a son?
How do you tell a son?
Mum don't love Daddy no more
How do you tell a son?
How do you tell a son?
How do you tell a son?
Mum don't love Daddy no more
