Broken One

We grew up so differently
You had one house, one back yard, one Christmas tree
You didn't split your time, didn't wonder why, like me
When I met your mama, I met your dad, damn, it's cool to see that
Love can last 'cause I never knew till I was loved like that by you

You coulda seen too much work
All the missing pieces
Someone who's gonna leave
'Cause I come from leaving

Coulda seen my past
Took a look at my baggage
And packed yours up and run
But you saw a home
In a girl from a broken one

She has my eyes and has your nose
But thank God she never has to know
What it's like to grow up picking sides

You coulda seen too much work
All the missing pieces
Someone who's gonna leave
'Cause I come from leaving

Coulda seen my past
Took a look at my baggage
And packed yours up and run
But you saw a home
In a girl from a broken one

Yeah, my raising wasn't perfect
But the girl you saw was worth it

You coulda seen too much work
All the missing pieces
Someone who's gonna leave
'Cause I come from leaving

Coulda seen my past
Took a look at my baggage
And packed yours up and run
But you saw a home
In a girl from a broken one
Yeah, you saw home, sweet home
In a girl from a broken one
