So this is the house, the house that we built So this is the car, the car that we bought So these are the things, the things that money can buy You say that you want them, well so doâ?¦ Oh what's this direction, oh darlin' anyway? Cause for the things you want, there's a price to pay Distraction, keeping you away from me Distraction, keeping me from where I want to be Distraction, for a moment or a mile The days turn into weeks, the weeks keep turningâ?¦ I wake up, I walk around, remember what I'm doing here I break down, I clean up, I make the bed we sleep in You wake up, you walk around while I'm still sleeping
We're always in a hurry for love not money And the line's always busy while we're trying to get through Oh what's this direction, oh darlin' anyway? Cause for the things you want, there's a price to pay Distraction, keeping you away from me Distraction, keeping me from where I want to be Distraction, for a moment or a mile The days turn into weeks, the weeks keep turningâ?¦ Distraction, keeping you away from me Distraction, keeping me from where I want to be Distraction, keeping you away from me Keeping me away from youâ?¦
