Song Lyrics

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 getting a whole lot older every day
It's too late to keep from goin' crazy
I've got to get away

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
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

The reasons that I can't stay, don't have a thing to do with being in love
I understand that lovin a man shouldn't have to be this rough
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

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

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
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
