Doing the Math

It’s no use doing the math
The numbers always change
Each time you add 'em up
You gotta go back and rearrange
You can’t expect the day
To go just how you planned
It’s no use doing the math
Or even thinking that you can
In the dead of night I woke
To a sound that hurt my heart
I heard my little lady crying
She must’ve realized we were apart
So I hurried to the crib
And I found her fast asleep
Maybe it was all a dream
The learning curve is steep
I’m hoping for the best
Prepping for the worst
I can’t decide these days
What’s a blessing or a curse
My love tells me she’s excited
Then she tells me she’s a wreck
Just when I think I know what’s coming
It’s time to double check
One day I will look back
On this windy, rugged path
And be glad I took it easy
And didn’t do the math
I’m hoping for the best
Prepping for the worst
I can’t decide these days
What’s a blessing or a curse
Cause you can’t expect the day
To go just how you planned
It’s no use doing the math
Even thinking that you can
It’s no use doing the math
Even thinking that you can
