as she waits for her fathers return
all the other kids were outside playing
she stares into space while they're all haveing fun
mommy ran away a long time ago

and she has 2 kids of her own
she sits onthe couch in the liveingroom
as she waits for her husbands return

As She Waits
she sits on the couch in the liveingroom
as she waits for her fathers return

mommy ran away a long time ago

so shes all alone, thats so sad
every night before bed she tucks herself in
she reads herself a story to sleep
she tries her hardest and stays so strong
she does her best not to weep
theres a man at the door, come to take her away
to a family where she will be loved
where every night they'll tuck her in
