Heard Her Cryin`

<br>The cold night in the kitchen saying things we`ll both regret<br>And you scream you were leaving and you cursed the day we`d met<br>Then the sound goes above the slamming door<br>And broken dishes thrown around the floor<br>So loud it made us stop it was the sound of a teardrop<br>When I heard her crying thought she was tucked away in bed<br>I heard her crying wish we could take back what we said<br>I didn`t think she was old enough to know oh Lord we must have hurt her so<br>When she begged you not to go I heard her crying<br>[ piano ]<br>Well I`d have given anything for time to erase<br>When I turned around and saw those little tears roll down her face<br>Oh my heart nearly broke in two when she said mommy what did I do<br>To make you and daddy mad oh I`m sorry I was bad<br>Well I looked at you and you looked at me and we felt each other`s shame<br>Then kneeling down to hold our child said she was not to blame<br>Now sometimes when we`re angry we say things that aren`t true<br>We still love each other and baby we love you<br>And I heard her crying...
