There Goes My Life

There Goes My Life


All he could think about was,
I'm too young for this,
I've got my whole life ahead,
Hell I'm just a kid myself,
How am I gonna raise one.

All he could see were his dreams
Going up in smoke'
So much for ditching this town
And hangin' out on the coast, oh well
Those plans are long gone
He said...

There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
Might as well kiss it all good-bye
There goes my life

A couple years of up all night
And a few thousand diapers later
That mistake he thought he'd made
Covers up the refrigerator, oh yeah
He loves that little girl
Momma's waitin' to tuck her in
As she strumbles up those stairs
And she smiles back at him
Draggin' that teddy bear
Sleep tight, blue eyes and bouncin' curls
And he smiles....

There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
I love you, daddy, goodnight
There goes my life.

She had that Honda loaded down with Abercrombie clothes
And fifteen pairs of shoes and his American Express
He checked the oil, slammed the hood,
Said you're good to go, she hugged them both
And headed off to the west...coast.

And he cried...

There goes my life
There goes my future
My everything
I love you, baby, good-bye

There goes my life...
There goes my life...
Baby, goodbye.
