Here we are
What is left of a husband and a wife
With four good kids
Who have a way of getting 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

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` 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
Everytime I said I`d never leave
But what I can`t live with
In 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
And I understand that lovin` a man
Shouldn`t have to be this rough
And you ain` 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
And you ain` 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

I don`t know why you gotta be angry all the time
