You lock the house You slam the door You do it so hard your fingers are sore I've seen you act This way before Just once before You know, you're right Turn out the lights Maybe we can make it through the night I hold my tongue I pay the price It's a sacrifice But 1, 2, 3, we're family Like an apple falling from a tree And if you cry Then I can't sleep And I won't rest until you're lying next to me I have to say, I used to feel a lot like you Not long ago You went to school You were so young Don't forget where it is you came from I used to worry that I'd never be someone Not long ago You learned the rules You learned them twice No one got somewhere by being nice You did your best To get in fights When you wanted more But 1, 2, 3, we're family Like an apple falling softly from that godforsaken tree And if you cry Then I can't sleep And I won't rest until you're lying next to me I have to say, I used to feel a lot like you Not long ago I have to say, I used to feel a lot like you Not long ago
