We're family again
So we're as close as we might ever be again
'Cause there's too many questions
Why we ever let this happen
Every other weekend
Is everybody in? Okay, let's go see Dad
'Cause there's too many questions
Half the hugs and kisses, they are always sad
She's over me, that's where we are
So I don't tell him I miss him
I miss everything
Every other Sunday I empty out my backseat
I can't tell her I love her
Every other weekend
And ears in the car
Fallin' for forever was a big mistake
I know why, but I don't know
I can't tell her I love her
We're as close as we might ever be again
There's so much not to do
Same time in the same spot
Daddy breaks my heart
And all day not to do with him
Grilled cheese and cut the crust off
God, I wish that he was still with me again
Corner of the same old parking lot
Yeah, for fifteen minutes
But that's not the way Mom makes it
Every other weekend
I re-convince myself
Every other weekend
We did the right thing
We don't touch, we don't talk much
And looks and kids again
Every other weekend, very few exceptions
I used to have with her again
While my children hug their mother in the parking lot
(I don't tell her I need her)
(I can't tell him I love him)
I pick up the love we made in both my arms
Maybe goodbye to each other
We trade a couple words
(I can't tell him I love him)
(I don't tell her I need her)
So I don't tell him I miss him
She's over me, that's where we are
Every other weekend
As she drives away with every piece of heart I got
It's movies on the sofa
Every other Saturday, first thing in the morning
I turn the TV on to make the quiet go away
Every other weekend
And ears in the car
