We Almost Had A Baby

Well you didn't stop

When I told you to stop

And there was a month

That I wasn't sure

The next time I saw you

Out on the river

I'd have something to say

Other than "pay me all of the money you owe"

I would have liked to

To have something above you

To have something to hold

And know I could choose to grow

I would've called you

And I'd have said "hey

You know I'm in control

I'll let you know if you have to come and choose a name"

Well, I am a woman

But before I met you

I was only a kid

You know

When you thought you would break me

But you wanted to take me

So you did.

And I will think of you now

That we are apart

I've put my hand across my gut

I plan to beat it with a heart

I'm not the girl you remember from the start

I was only a baby

Now I'm what you made me

For once, you hit the spot

Twice, you let it fall

And once I tried to make a light

To keep myself in yours

Do you think of me

When you are playing?
