Mason Jennings - Family Tree lyrics

Well all the dreams have gone
From my worried mind
Ain't no pretty pictures left
By luck's design and baby
I'm just a leaf hanging on my family tree
I'm just a leaf hanging on my family tree
And it's a weak branch that's been hanging me
April if you may comes to june and july
All these months to the flame
And still no butterfly boy
I'm just a leaf blowing on my family tree
I'm just a leaf blowing on my family tree
And it's strong wind that's been blowing me
Baby don't you cry it won't matter to you
'cause every bad life goes by
And your mama loves you yes she does
Now there's alotta good things that
My daddy did but
There ain't no burden like an unplanned kid
And baby, i'm falling now don't know
Where i'm gonna land
I'm falling now don't know
Where i'm gonna land
Half in the shadows, honey, and
Half in the light, that's right

Baby don't you cry it won't matter to you
It won't matter to you
'cause every bad life goes by
And your mama loves you
