A cold night in the kitchen
Sayin things we both regret
And you screamed you were leavin
And you cursed the day we met
Then a sound rose above the slammin door
And broken dishes thrown around the floor
So loud it made us stop
It was the sound of a tear drop

When I heard her cryin
Thought she was tucked away in bed
I heard her cryin
Wish we could take back what we said
I didn't think she was old enough to know
Oh lord we must have hurt her so
When she begged you not to go
I heard her cryin

Well I'd have given anything
For time to erase
When I turned around and saw
Those little tears roll down her face
Oh my heart nearly broke in two
When she said mommy what did I do
To make you and daddy mad
Oh I'm sorry I was bad

Well I looked at you
And you looked at me
And we felt eachother's shame
Then kneeling down to hold our child
Since she was not to blame
Sometimes when we're angry
We say things that aren't true
But we still love eachother
And baby we love you

And I heard her cryin'.
