What Shall We Do With The Child Lyrics
(Holmes/Horsey, additional lyrics by Carly Simon)I know I’m not what you wantedNot what you had in mindAnd I didn’t come closeTo the mark You’d setFor the girl you’d planned to findYou’ve never seen me cryWe shared but idle wordsAnd a casual goodbyeAnd what shall we do with the childWho’s got your eyesMy hairAnd your smileReminding me that we fell in loveBut just for a little whileYou never asked about the girl you never knewAnd while she was sleeping in my armsShe never asked about youWithout you seems the only wayBut time has passed and nowShe’ll soon be asking questionsAnd she’ll ask about youAnd howShall I say to the childWho’s got your eyes, my hair, your smileReminding me that we fell in loveBut just for a little whileWhat shall we do with the childWho’s got your eyes, my hair, your smile
