I Got Up Every Morning (And Left You)
I was on the road six days a week
When we first started going out
It was kinda hard but we made it work
You had faith in me there's no doubt
I was young and ambitious
Looking for opportunity
I gave up driving to work in the home office
Kept me right here at home in the community
I got up every morning and left you
You were there for me when I got home
There was dinner on the table every evening
And loving every night when day was done
Working dispatch got me noticed
They sent me to learn statistics
A shot at management came my way
And I moved up to logistics
The years flew by like mile markers
A house, a dog, some kids and a wife
I was doing everything I could to be a man
It's all I ever wanted from this life
I got up every morning and left you
You were there for me when I got home
But when you got up and left me
You left me all alone
I was blind
I could not see
That all I ever thought about was me
You had my name
I had my pride
But I never saw you dying inside
I sit and wonder was it worth it
All those years of wanting more
When all my riches were right there in front of me
Until you just walked out my door
I got up every morning and left you
You were there for me when I got home
But when you got up and left me
You left me to face myself alone
Won't you come home?
