i can´t do that anymore þarký sözü

(alan jackson)

cut my hair the way you wanted
watched you become important
quit my job to make our new home far away
now you´re mr. successful and i´m queen of the treadmill
trying to stay the size you think that i should stay
i used to dream about what i would be
last night i dreamed about a washing machine

i keep on giving
but i can´t stop living
a woman needs a little something of her own
i like happy endings
i don´t like depending
i keep right on pretending
but i can´t do that anymore

now you say i´m being silly
but you don´t know me really
you never take the time to ask me how i feel
i keep the checkbook balanced
i decorate your palace
you know i used to think that you were king
somewhere down deep i know you really love me
but you can´t see that what we have´s not all i needed

i keep on giving
but i can´t stop living
a woman needs a little something of her own
i like happy endings
i don´t like depending
i keep right on pretending
but i can´t do that anymore

you try to tell me i´m not being fair to you
but life´s too short for a selfish attitude

i keep on giving
but i can´t stop living
a woman needs a little something of her own
i like happy endings
i don´t like depending
i keep right on pretending
but i can´t do that anymore
