When You Love Someone

Come home early after class

Don't be hanging round the back of the schoolyard

I've been called up by a teacher

She says she can't even reach you cause you're so far

You've been talking with your fist

We didn't raise you up like this

Now did we

There have been changes in this house

Things that you don't know about in this family

It don't make sense

But nevertheless

You gotta believe us it's all for the best

It don't make sense

The way things go

Son you should know

Sometimes moms and dads fall out of love

Sometimes two homes are better than one

Some things you can't tell your sister 'cause she's still too young

Yeah you'll understand

When you love someone

There ain't no one here to blame

Nothing's going to change with your old friends

Your room will stay the same

Because you'll only be away on the weekends

It don't make sense but nevertheless

You gotta believe us it's all for the best

It don't make sense

It don't add up

We'll always love you no matter what

Sometimes moms and dads fall out of love

Sometimes two homes are better than one

Some things you can't tell your sister 'cause she's still too young

Yeah you'll understand

When you love someone

When you love someone

Come home early after class

Don't be hanging around the back of the schoolyard

And if we're crying on the couch

Don't let it freak you out

This has been so hard

Sometimes moms and dads fall out of love

Sometimes the best intention just ain't enough

Some things you can't tell sister 'cause she's still too young

Yeah you'll understand

When you love someone

When you love someone

When you love someone

Oohhh

When you love someone
