Baby - Please, Please just listen to me

I feel stuck in a trap
That I have set
Can't decide what
Is my best bet

I'd love to be happy
With things as they are
Just can't, so instead take
Things too far

Baby- Please, Please just listen to me

Day after day I try
To succeed
In what I consider
Life's most important deed

I get so torn up and
Frustrated inside
Inside of the
Feelings I can't hide

Baby - Please, Please just listen to me

And then, the kids get
Upset seeing me so sad
And think it's cause
They've been bad

And somehow I end up
Hurting those I love most
The joy of my life
My greatest boast

Baby - Please, Please just listen to me

I can't expect you to
Understand all about me
And always complaining
About not being free

What I want and need
Just can't always be
But baby - Please, please
Just listen to me
