I come home to a family who loves me
And I sit there with you on my mind
I keep thinking of some way to tell them
That I'll have to leave them behind

But how do you talk to a baby
What words will a child understand
If I should just walk off and leave them
Tell me dear could you love that kind of man

[ guitar ]
So I guess that it's best you forget me
Maybe time will erase all the pain
But I thought it over it's not worth it
Maybe some day you'll learn to understand

For how do you talk to a baby...
