Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Cut my hair the way you want it.
Watched you become important,
Quit my job to make our new home far away,
[Verse 2]
Now you're Mister Successful
And I'm queen of the treadmill tryin to stay the size
You think that I should stay,
I used to dream about what I would be,
Last night I dreamed about the washin' machine.
[Chorus]
I keep on givin, but I can't stop livin'
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
[Verse 3]
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,
[Verse 4]
I keep the checkbook balanced
I decorate your palace,
You know I used to think that you were king,
Somewhere deep down I know you really love me,
But you can't see that what we have was not all I needed,
[Chorus]
I keep on givin, but I can't stop livin'
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
[Bridge]
You try to tell me I'm not being fair to you,
But life's too short for a selfish attitude.
[Instrumental]
X 2
[Chorus]
I keep on givin, but I can't stop livin'
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
I can't do that anymorrre.
