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
An 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 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 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
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 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
An 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 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
I don't know why you gotta be angry all the time
