What About The Love We Made

(album: Tough All Over - 1990)

That old picture on the dresser goes with your things
The rocking chair in the corner goes with mine
You can take the bed and have the TV
And I'll keep the stereo if you don't mind
We've seperated everything between us
It's the kindest that we've been in a long, long time
But there's still one thing we've got left between us
And we don't know what to do, I wonder if we thought this through

What about the love we made?
She's upstairs in her room, crying over me and you
Lord, we never meant to hurt her this way
We've divided everything me and you
Even her little heart right in two
Now what about the love we made?

We've told her at least a thousand times we love her
And no matter what happens that won't change
But who could blame her if she won't believe us
Aren't we the same ones who told her
She'd never see this day?
It filled us both with shame when she told her dolly
"Now promise me that you won't leave me too"
And it was more than I could take when she said "Mommy
If there's something I've done wrong
Well, I'll be good for you"

Oh, what about the love we made?
She's upstairs in her room
Crying over me and you
Lord, we never meant to hurt her this way
We've divided everything me and you
Even her little heart right in two
Now what about the love we made?
What about the love we made?
