Difficult Child

Difficult Child
Baby I’ve been traveling so long
Searching for the things that which you ask
Trying to make you think I could become

The things you want.
And baby I’ve been working so hard
Scratching in the dirt and in the fire
Begging for the beautiful life
That you require.
I know I’m like a difficult child.
Screaming through the night
So help me find the light
Without you I’m a broken down car,
Rusting in the yard
still waiting for the part.
Now finally I’m back on our road
Crunching on the shingle in the drive
Hungry for your love as I return
But there’s no sign.
I know I’m like a difficult child.
Screaming through the night
So help me find the light
Without you I’m a broken down car,
Rusting in the yard
Still waiting for the part.
I thought that you’d be waiting like a soldier’s Queen

Gazing from your window
Holding out for me
What a fool I’ve been again.
I know I’m like a difficult child.
Screaming through the night
So help me find the light
Without you I’m a broken down car,
Rusting in the yard
Still waiting for the part.
