Wondering why
You're taking me
And breaking me
And making me
Your fool
I'm not your Scorpio that's cool
I always wanted to break that rule
But never did
Didn't want to be rid
Of my beautiful little kid
My baby-boy, Blue
Doesn't know what to do
When we talk about you,
His long-gone dad
But it doesn't make him sad
Cause he never saw you glad
And you never went that extra mile
He never saw you smile
And it's been quite a while
Since he's seen you at all
he doesn't know if your heart's still small
Or if you'll teach him to hit a baseball
He's having some trouble with that.
