Lyrics
I Hate To Hear My Babies Cry
Lyrics: Lester Norton Teri Norton Feaser
Music & arrangement: Teri Norton/Jeff Allen Moninger
Can we just sit & talk it over
We could give it one more try
All these years we've been together
It don't seem right to say goodbye
We should to think about the children
Consider all the reasons why
They don't need this separation
I hate to hear my babies cry
If it's me that's come between us
We can find some common ground
Honey if it takes forever
I'll make it up to you somehow
We need to think about the children
Consider all the reasons why
They don't need this separation
I hate to hear my babies cry...our babies cry
(½ verse ½ chorus instrumental)
Like a ship in troubled water
A simple answer may be found
We can work it out together
We can turn our love around
We have to think about the children
Consider all the reasons why
They don't need this separation
Can't bear to hear my babies cry...our babies cry
