Wednesday's Child

Did I realize too late in my twenties

I was keeping you close, still coming up empty

I tried so hard keeping you happy

And where did that get me?

Where did that get me?

Learn how to smile with your teeth like you mean it

Never wanted to go, I'd rather be leaving

You broke it first, now we're not speaking

But I'm calling it even

I'm calling it even

So caught up in your own storm

You're creating

So big you can't even see

That it's raining

All of the heartache is from

Your own making

Ooh

I can't stay if you don't grow

It's not your fault you didn't know

A Wednesday's child, a heart of woe

I should know

I should know

Wednesday's child grew up so quickly

Wednesday's child loved me so deeply

But Wednesdays gone it took all hope

Wednesdays child is full of woe

Ooh

You always said you're not like your father

But now who's the one who's making this harder

Chasing the approval you're after

Then what are you left with?

What are you left with?

So caught up in your own storm

You're creating

So big you can't even see

That it's raining

All of the heartache is from

Your own making

Ooh

I can't stay if you don't grow

It's not your fault you didn't know

A Wednesday's child a heart of woe

I should know

I should know

Wednesday's child grew up so quickly

Wednesday's child loved me deeply

But Wednesday's gone it took all hope

Wednesdays child is full of woe

Ooh

Wednesday's child grew up so quickly

Wednesday's child loved me so deeply

But Wednesday's gone it took all hope

Wednesday's child is full of woe
