All he could think about was how I'm too young for this
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 hanging out on the coast
Oh well, those plans are long gone, and he said
There goes my life
There goes my future, my everything
Might as well kiss it all goodbye
There goes my life
A couple years of up all night and a few thousand diapers later
That mistake he thought he made covers up the refrigerator
Oh yeah, he loves that little girl
Mama's waiting to tuck her in as she fumbles up those stairs
She smiles back at him dragging that teddy bear
Sleep tight, blue eyes and bouncing curls, and he smiles
There goes my life
There goes my future, my everything
I love you, daddy good night
There goes my life
She had that Honda loaded down with Abercrombie clothes
And 15 pairs of shoes and his American Express
He checked the oil slammed the hood said you're good to go
She hugged em 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 goodbye
There goes my life
(repeat last line to fade)
