How much has

It cost to get me what

I want in the end

My wife, my house, my kids,

Everything I’ve ever worked for

Well, I sure hope it’s worth it



Does it break you in two

Little one,

When I tell you I’m not

Even sure what I want



Does it hurt you real bad

To know that I’m so confused

And that Daddy didn’t pick you



Well I’m sorry

I’m just not sure what I want

Is that any consolation?



I’m leaving you behind

Moving on for this new find

Grass much greener on the

Other side



And I sit you on my lap

And I sigh,

Hell, I sure hope it’s worth it
