The Way Things Were Done

She gets up in the morning

Starts breakfast at six

She's weary, you can see it in her eyes

She kisses her husband

And wakes all the children

She can't do it all but she tries

She's a mother of seven

A grandma of two

And she lives her whole life for them all

It's hard to imagine, what she's really feeling

Cause she keeps it all behind her wall

And she'll never know

The way it might have been

Oh that's, just the way things were done

And she only knows the way it was back then

Oh that's, just the way things were done

Now somewhere there's someone

She'll think of forever

And she'll always have his memory

She wonders if he's married

Or does he have children

Cause she wonders what he came to be

But she'll never know

The way it might have been

Oh that's, just the way things were done

And she only knows the way it was back then

Oh that's, just the way things were done

Ohh ohh ohh that's just the way things were done
