She's a great little housewife Though sometimes she talks like a fool But she helps at the store in the holiday rush And she picks up the kids after school And she puts down the phone when her husband comes home And she changes from mother to wife 'Til she feels the words hanging between them And she hangs by her words to her life She says I swear I love my husband, I love my kids I wanted to be like my mother But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did Oh there might have been time to be me For myself, for myself There's so many things that she wishes She don't even know what she's missin' And that's how she knows that she missed She's a sweetheart, except when she's moody It's hard to get through to her then Depressed for a while when the youngest was born Oh but that happens now and again She might take a drink with the housework Or when Michael's kept late at the shop A Martini or two before dinner But she always knows when to stop She says I swear I love my husband and I love my kids You know I wanted to be like my mother But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did Oh there might have been time to be me For myself, for myself There's so many things that she wishes She don't even know what she's missin' And that's how she knows that she missed Oh they used to hold hands at the movies Now it's seldom if ever they go Once you've paid for the sitter and parkin' the car There's no money left for the show She was doing the dishes When a glass fell and broke on the tile And she cut her wrist (quite by mistake) It was real touch and go for a while She says Oh God I love my husband and I love my kids You know I wanted to be like my, my mother But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did Oh there might have been time to be me For myself, for myself There's so many things that she wishes She don't even know what she's missin' And that's how she knows that she missed

Do you remember how we used to be Before we lost the dream of you and me From the very start you took my breath away So tonight let's bring back yesterday Darlin' stay Why don't you be with me tonight Stay We can make love till the morning light Baby stay I can make everything alright Just tell me what to say 'Cause I really don't want you to go You used to laugh and say sweet things to me You made me happy as a man can be Hold me in your arms like you did then Make the memory live all over again Darlin' stay Why don't you be with me tonight Stay We can make love till the morning light Baby stay I can make everything alright Just tell me what to say 'Cause I really don't want you to go

We walked to the sea Just my father and me And the dogs played around on the sand Winter cold cut the air Hangin' still everywhere Dressed in gray, did he say hold my hand I said, love's easier when it's far away We sat and watched a distant light We're two ships that pass in the night We both smile and we say it's alright We're still here, it's just that we're out of sight Like those ships that pass in the night There's a boat on the line Where the sea meets the sky There's another that rides far behind And it seems you and I Are like strangers, a wide ways apart As we drift on through time He said, it's harder now, we're far away We only read you when you write We're two ships that pass in the night And we smile when we say it's alright We're still here, it's just that we're out of sight Like those ships that pass in the night We're just ships that pass in the night And we smile when we say it's alright We're still here, it's just that we're out of sight Like those ships that pass in the night
