The Games that Were Played

Today they walk the aisle,
They'll both say the vows.
He lets her have his name,
So the baby has no shame.

They'd played grown up games,
And got burnt by the flames,
They both lost their dreams,
He's a family with no means.

Their baby is on the way,
But it's not a happy day.
The games that were played,
Caused a baby to be made.

He had been warned by his dad.
That these games could be sad.
He had seen what they could do,
Now he's where they led him to.

This might not have to end,
If the baby's love can win.
But if they hadn't played,
They wouldn't be here today.

Their baby is on the way,
But it's not a happy day.
The games that were played,
Caused a baby to be made.
