Blue October - The Money Tree lyrics
[Blue October - The Money Tree lyrics]
I'm standin' on an open world
I've gotta try so hard for myself
Not including the ones that I love
I call my family
It's not hard when your focus
Is a beautiful girl
A brand new baby, she's a baby girl
And yes, she is a cutie like her mommy
She looks like her mommy
We both know who we are
And I'm not changing a thing
I've never changed before
If lovin' me is work, I'm not a job to take
I think we're headin' for
The crazy making heartbreak
I'm wonderin' why I'm sittin' here
Alone again why you always crush me
Why it's never easy
Easy, easy, easy, it's not easy
This is you, this is me
You won't be a part of what we need to be
Not for me, for the future of us three
For our daughter, college, family
Sudden health emergencies
You think it's easy
Pickin' money off my Money Tree?
With two houses, both cars
I paid off your fucking credit card debt
Did you already forget? Huh?
You threaten, threaten, threaten
Threaten, threaten, huh
Just fucking leave
Find a man who will put up with this shit
We both know who we are
And I'm not changing a thing
I've never changed before
If lovin' me is work, I'm not a job to take
I think we're headin' for
The crazy making heartbreak
I can't help but think
Of how good you are with our baby daughter
Half the time a single mother
When I go away
It's so that you can always stay home
And watch your baby grow
Bring her up the right way
(You never take it that way)
We both know who we are and I'm not changing
I need support, not a slap in the face
You have to trust me
Or I'm sure this will blow up in your face
Our love was such an angel
She doesn't even know
We've torn each other down in
Ways we don't even know
We both know who we are
And I'm not changing a thing
I've never changed before
If lovin' me is work, I'm not a job to take
I think we're headin' for
The crazy making heartbreak
I can't help but think
Of how good you are with our baby daughter
Half the time a single mother
When I go away
It's so that you can always stay home
And watch your baby grow
Bring her up the right way
It's me
The one who has his family's future at heart
It's you
The one who never wants a family apart
We both know that together
We can only believe that if we cut the shit
There'd be no reason to leave
I've gotta try so hard for myself
Not including the ones that I love
I call my family
It's not hard when your focus
Is a beautiful girl
A brand new baby, she's a baby girl
And yes, she is a cutie like her mommy
She looks like her mommy
We both know who we are
And I'm not changing a thing
I've never changed before
If lovin' me is work, I'm not a job to take
I think we're headin' for
The crazy making heartbreak
I'm wonderin' why I'm sittin' here
Alone again why you always crush me
Why it's never easy
Easy, easy, easy, it's not easy
This is you, this is me
You won't be a part of what we need to be
Not for me, for the future of us three
For our daughter, college, family
Sudden health emergencies
