Just Forget It, Son

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

So now it's over, and you're free

You've left your little boy and me

You say you're tired of staying home

And you can make it on your own

I thought this family was your life

You're a new woman, not a wife

And now you're chasin' a new dream

Found in a cosmo magazine

That little guy and i will find our way

We never really knew you anyway

And when he wants to know the when the where the why and how

The mama who should be at home is gone

I'll tell him just forget it son

I spent a lifetime lovin' you

Or was it just a year or two

The girl i thought had clipped her wings

Lived only in my boyish dreams

Someday they'll say your son looks just like you

But you'll never know if what they say is true

And when he wants to know the when the where the why and how

The mama who should be at home is gone

I'll tell him just forget it son

And when he wants to know the when the where the why and how

The mama who should be at home is gone

I'll tell him just forget it son

It's just the times, not what we've done
