Little Shoulders

There's little ears just down the hall
This fighting can't go on
The love we made when we created them
Can't be gone

If we should go our separate ways
Is it something they'll get over
Or can we lay our broken hearts to rest
On little shoulders?

We'd give them two of everything
Two homes, two families
Two cars to shuttle them between
What's left of you and me

The weight of all this change is hard enough
For someone older
But here we are prepared to lay this load
On little shoulders

Tucked in bed, lost in childish dreams
Their innocence depends on you and me

What drove us to this breaking point
Didn't happen overnight
So maybe we should slow it down
And give these hearts some time

Look back to where we started
Before our love turned colder

And pray we find the warmth again to wrap
'Round little shoulders
Let's pray we find the warmth again to wrap
Around little shoulders
