I told him that it wasn't necessary
To constantly impress the ?? poor me
I told him I was proud to be his woman
And just his love was all I'd ever need
But the fool wouldn't listen
Then simple things became a constant struggle
His humble heart would make his ego strong
He thought the finer things would make me happy
I pulled him close and told him he was wrong
But the fool wouldn't listen
He just kept right on searching for the treasures we had found
He just kept digging in the dirt in search of solid ground
He just kept running through the forest, looking for the trees
He left me here at home in hopes he'd find his way to me
I told him when the frowns of life grew heavy
The burdened one would seek a smiling face
I told him when the nights grew long and lonely
A heart left cold would find a warm embrace
But the fool wouldn't listen
He just kept right on searching for the treasures we had found
He just kept digging in the dirt in search of solid ground
He just kept running through the forest, looking for the trees
He left me here at home in hopes he'd find his way to me
