You Did It For Me
From the sunshine state
and a house near the sea
you moved away
and you did it for me...
From the warm crispy air
and the thick salty breeze
you left it all behind
and you did it for me
From the closeness of family
HOW COULD IT BE?
that you'd give it all up
you did it for me
bound by addictions
longing to be free
you overcame it all
and momma,you did it for me...
