Emmy the Great - We Almost Had a Baby Lyrics

Well you didn't stop when I told you to stop
And there was a month when I wasn't sure
If the next time I saw you out on the road
I'd have something to say, other than
"Pay all of the money that you owe"

And I would have liked to
To have something above you
To have something to hold
And know I could choose to let it grow

And I would have called you
And I'd have said "Hey
You know I'm in control
And I'll let you know
If you have to come and choose a name"

Well I am a woman
Well you know I'm a woman
But before I met you, I was only a kid
You know there were moments
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 put my hand across my gut
I plan to feed it with a heart
I'm not the girl that you remember from the start
I was only a baby
Now I am what you made me

And I will think of you
Now that we are apart
I put my hand across my gut
I plan to feed it with a heart
I'm not the girl that you remember from the start
I was only a baby
Now I am what you made me

And once you left me in the spring
And twice you left in fall
And once I tried to make a life
To keep myself in yours
Do you think of me when you are playing
The one and five in four?
Is country music what your life is for?
