Lyrics for Child of Divorce

You wake me up softly You know I need coffee And you're all over the days that I might need more love than usual Our neighbors are all out the front We know they're bitching about us Our place last night looked like Lollapalooza These things They add up And I'm scared now I'm gonna screw it up 'Cause I come from a place of turbulence I'm a child of divorce, so of course there'll be Things I haven't really processed yet You're the type to help me get through it And you know I love a Christmas tree But you'll have to help me constantly That's the only way you'll get to put the star on top with me You take me on a holiday And I've never been so far away You got a few spots you're excited to show me I slipped my socks over my feet You think it's funny that I sleep with these I feel cold quite easily You said, "I know you do, baby" These things They add up And I'm scared now I'm gonna screw it up 'Cause I come from a place of turbulence I'm a child of divorce, so of course there'll be Things I haven't really processed yet You're the type to help me get through it And you know I love a Christmas tree But you'll have to help me constantly That's the only way you'll get to put the star on top with me Take everyone out of the room, make it easy Face out the window if I start screaming Move into a house with no backyard Never have I loved anyone this hard To hell with whatever the plans once were We like going to England reminds us of her We laugh at people if they only knew And I know you do 'Cause I come from a place of turbulence I'm a child of divorce, so of course there'll be Things I haven't really processed yet You're the type to help me get through it And you know I love a Christmas tree But you'll have to help me constantly That's the only way you'll get to put the star on top with me
