It�s time for all good little boys to go to sleep
Let�s say our prayer, beg the Lord my soul to keep
Run to the bedroom and I�ll tuck you into bed
Read you a story, then I�ll kiss your sleepy head
Someday I�ll have to tell you the reason we live alone
You may not have a father, but you�ve got a home
And when you wake, I�ll build a fire to keep you warm
Stay home from school; thank God we�re sheltered from the storm
Someday we�ll have a little cottage by the sea
And watch the sunrise from the seashore, you and me
Someday I�ll have to tell you why I�ve chosen to live alone
You may not have a father, but you�ve got a home
Come to the window, hold your breath and take a peek
Enjoy the silence; it�s been snowing for a week
But in the house I�m giving love to keep you warm
I didn�t plan it, but I�m glad that you were born
I find it so amazing how quickly you have grown
You may not have a father, but you�ve got a home
It�s time for all good little boys to go to sleep
Let�s say our prayer, beg the Lord my soul to keep
Run to the bedroom and I�ll tuck you into bed
Read you a story, then I�ll kiss your sleepy head
Someday I�ll have to tell you the reason we live alone
You may not have a father, but you�ve got a home
