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
