Lyrics
Trouble Me, Trouble You
copyright 2005 Michael Cregan

As our love gets a little bit older
You?ve been looking over my shoulder
I walk on eggshells
So I don?t make a sound
And when we go out at night
If you don?t say things just right
Sets my teeth on edge
Then it all comes down
Trouble me, you been running around
Trouble you, I?m always out on the town
Sometimes it seems that?s all we can do
Trouble me, trouble you.
Look for hurt in far away places
Betrayal in stranger?s faces
Slings and arrows
That cut right to our hearts
Start again and it feels alright
But somewhere deep in the night
The pain hits
And that when the trouble starts
Trouble me, you?re always putting me down
Trouble you, I always act like a clown
One of us is always blue
Trouble me, trouble you.
If the sun goes down on our love
I hope you won?t be thinking of
All the little fights
That don?t mean a thing
I?m not the one who said for life
You?re not the one who became my wife
On the day
When we first put on our rings.
Trouble me, you?re always staying out late
Trouble you, I?m always taking the bait
Oh why can?t we do something new?
Trouble me, trouble you.
