Our little boy is 4 years old
And quite a little man
So we spell out the words
we don't want him to understand
Like T-O-Y or maybe
S-U-R-P-R-I-S-E surprise
But the words we're hiding from him now
Tear the heart right out of me
Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E
Becomes final today
Me and little
J-O-E will be going away
I love you both and this will be pure
H-E double L for me
Oh,I wish that we could stop this
D-I-V-O-R-C-E
Watch him smile
He thinks it's Christmas
Or his fifth birthday
And he thinks C-U-S-T-O-D-Y spells fun or play
I spell out all the hurting words
And turn my head when I speak
Cause I can't spell away this hurt
That's dripping down my cheek
Our D-I-V-O-R-C-E
Becomes final today
Me and little
J-O-E will be going away
I love you both and this will be pure
H-E double L for me
Oh,I wish that we could stop this
D-I-V-O-R-C-E
