This is the band page for a musical I wrote called "Children and Parents".
The play was intended to be performed by children and adults with the main theme exp
Story behind the song
After the children sing "I Can Do It!", they go to their clubhouse where they decide to run away from home. The way they see it, their parents don't have time for them anyway. They write a note for their parents and leave the note in the clubhouse. The note is the words for the second song of the musical.
Lyrics
Chorus:
It's a lesson of the heart
A lesson well learned
A lesson of the heart
You got a little burned
You never will forget
The things you learn today
This lesson of the heart
A price you pay
This lesson of the heart
A price you pay
[Kelly] You had me in your arms
You pushed me away .
You didn't have the time
What could I say?
[Charley] Someday when I'm gone
So far, far away
Then you'll realize
The way I felt today
Chorus
[Jaimie] I only needed love
I only wanted you
Was that too much to ask?
What could I do?
[Kelly] I tried so hard to please
I did the best I could
But nothing that I tried
Did me any good
Chorus
