In my life

I don't remember the night you started to fight.
I don't remember you telling him get lost.

You two signed the papers and made it last
Mommy told me its daddy's fault hes gone
Daddy told me shes wrong

I loved you both
I didn't ask you to change my life
but you did

Mom went back to school
dad worked all day long
Me and johnny stayed home with the babysitter

Dad fell in love with someone new
mom dated

late at night I would cry,
as hot tears ran down my face
mom would comfort me
daddy would tell me he loved me
over the phone

I loved you both
I didn't ask you to change my life
but you did

We move to a new house
a new life
New friends and new fights

I grew up
Not such a little girl anymore
Every night I talked with my dad
every day mom would work so hard

Mom worked hard
she got us nice things
she tried to be my best friend

I loved you both
I didn't ask you to change my life
but you did

she get angry and yell
telling me to go away
she'd talk behind my back

I would cry and
she wouldn't know why
she told me to toughen up

Daddy got a new wife, a new life
He has two more little girls
I'm not the baby anymore

In high school now
I work so hard
I get good grades
I'm at a 3.5
I'm still not good enough for her
"What will MSU say?"

Now mommy yells more
she doesn't try to be my best friend
Daddy has to work more
he remembers to call every night

I loved you both
I didn't ask you to change my life
but you did
And me and johnny have to deal with it
