Mom sings solo
Mom dances the waltz all alone
Her childhood dreams washed away
Nobody dreams of being alone
She's got love locked up
She doesn't have time for spring
Keeps her happiness in detention
My smiles make hers while she waits
Dad if you only knew
How she's out of breath
Hello world if you knew, if you knew
Little by little
Mom builds her nest
Dad left to start a new life
Not too far from here
Little by little
Mom told you
You'll live your own life
You'll do better than him
You'll do better than us
Dad sings solo
Dad dances the tango, back broken
And the crowd just raised the level
Suffer, yeah, but with a little dignity
He's got his heart in jail
He doesn't have time for spring
Since promises mean betrayal
Might as well buy dreams for kids
Mom if you only knew
How he's out of breath
Hello world if you could
Help him
Little by little
Dad builds his nest
Mom left to start a new life
Not too far from here
Little by little
Dad told you
You'll live your own life
You'll do better than her
You'll do better than us
Mom sings solo
Dad sings solo
And I sing their backing vocals
Every other weekend
I've changed rhythm
Of life, of tempo
I looked for my steps between her waltz and his tango
We went from spring to bad weather
I tried to understand
They told me 'that's life'
Hard to accept so I spend every night
Playing puzzle with family photos
I've got a smile in detention
Only their reconciliation
Can pay the bail
Their adult problem, I swear
Is a nasty infection
An epidemic my playground knows
Don't ask me to choose
I love them
With an indivisible love
Whether they wage war or not
I know these two soldiers
Have my happiness in their sights
Dad if you only knew
How I'm out of breath
Hello world if you knew
If you knew
Mom if you only knew
From his absence, I suffer
Grown-ups of the world if you could
Help me!
Little by little
Mom builds her nest
Dad left to start a new life
Not too far from here
Little by little
Mom told you
You'll live your life, you'll do better than him
Little by little
Dad builds his nest
Mom left to start a new life
Not too far from here
Little by little
Dad told you
You'll live your own life
You'll do better than her
You'll do better than us
