It sure gets quiet  When the kids go to bed  We sit here inthe silence  Putting off what must be said    I read a book you watch T.V.  As our love dies quietly  I'm so sad I don't know what I've just read  (Chorus)  Somebody should leave  But which one should it be  You need the kids  And they need me  Somebody should leave  But we hate to give in  We keep hopin' somehow  We might need each other again    You say goodnight  And turn to face the wall  We lie here in the darkness  And the tears start to fall    If it was only you and me  Goodbye might come more easily  But what about  Those babies down the hall  (Repeat Chorus)    Somebody should leave  But we hate to give in  (Spoken): So let's keep hopin' we might need each other again    these lyrics are submitted by Barbara
