Here we are
What is left of a husband and a wife
With four good kids, who have a way, of gettin on with
their lives
And I'm not old but I'm gettin' a whole lot older everyday
It's too late to keep from goin' crazy
I've got to get away
Chorus:
The reasons that I can't stay don't have a thing to do
with being in love
And I understand that lovin' a man shouldn't have to
be this rough
And you ain't the only one who feels like this world's
left you far behind
I don't know why you gotta be angry all the time
Our boys are strong now, the spittin' image of you when
you were young
I hope someday they can see past, what you have become
And I remember every time I said I'd never leave
But what I can't live with is memories of the way you
used to be
(repeat chorus)
Twenty years have came and went since I walked out of
your door
I never quite made it back to the one I was before
And God it hurts me to think of you, for
the light in your eyes was gone
And sometimes I don't know why this old world can't leave
well enough alone
(repeat chorus)
I don't know why you gotta be angry all the time
