I guess forever meant forever until
you found
someone new and wanted a different life
Excuse me that this was the way to go and
the way to
be a husband to a wife
Everything I do I put my best foor forward
and you'd
just try to hold me back
Even when I got home late from a show
it still felt
like a personal attack
And why?
Of course, you won't get why

I'm a dad in the day and an artist at
night though
you'd never tell if you looked at me
Wearing two hats at the same time
even though
there's two of us, yet you don't see the why
Yet you don't see the why
Hey, surprised?

You wanted to run, running away, far away
from me
Far away from me

Don't you worry about it, all the money
and stuff,
while you fix your nails I'll will fix the bills
Trying to keep this family going strong
and together
and you're elsewhere seeking your own thrills
Everything I do I put my best foot forward
and you'd
still try to cut it off
I'm getting pretty tired of the effort that
you say
you're putting in, or the lack thereof
So, I don't want to say goodbye
But I

I needed a song, something new, something
I can be
The way I used to be

You wanted to run, running away, far away
from me
I wanted to run as well, away, to somewhere
I could be
Just for once be me
