Micro Management Blues:
Made with Songer
[Verse 1]
Woke up this morning, coffee in my hand,
Thought of my baby, tried to understand,
He's got the smarts, he’s got the grace,
Used to run the markets, but I’m in his face.
Oh, my heart is heavy, but my head’s a mess,
When it comes to love, I can't help but second-guess.
I’m a doc, I see the world in black and white,
But my love needs some freedom, to soar into the night.
[Chorus]
I got the Micro Management Blues,
Telling him, “Honey, don’t you make those moves!”
He’s a smart man, but I can’t let him be,
Got my heart in a bind, can’t let him breathe free.
[Verse 2]
Every little task, I’m right there at his side,
“Watch for the potholes, don’t go take that ride!”
I know I’m too much, gotta learn to let go,
But the worry inside me just won’t take it slow.
He managed hedge funds, kept fortunes tight,
But can’t he see, I’m trying to hold on tight?
It's a battle I fight with each passing day,
He’s got the skills, but I’m stuck in my way.
[Chorus]
I got the Micro Management Blues,
Telling him, “Honey, don’t you make those moves!”
He’s a smart man, but I can’t let him be,
Got my heart in a bind, can’t let him breathe free.
[Bridge]
Oh, the nights are long, but I’m stuck in my head,
With a million warnings, I just wish I was dead,
Every time he smiles, I worry he’ll fall,
But baby, oh baby, I’m building this wall.
[Verse 3]
Now I see the toll, it’s weighing us down,
I’m the doctor here, but I’m losing this round,
He's got dreams too, and I’m holding him back,
Don’t want to drown in this micro attack.
With every suggestion, I’m fighting the fight,
How do I trust him to do it just right?
I’ll take a step back, I’ll pick my heart up,
Let him make choices, and drink from his cup.
[Chorus]
I got the Micro Management Blues,
Telling him, “Honey, don’t you make those moves!”
He’s a smart man, but I can’t let him be,
Got my heart in a bind, can’t let him breathe free.
[Outro]
So here’s to the wisdom of letting him go,
To let him shine bright, and put on a show,
I’ll breathe out the worry, and cry out my sin,
When I trust him completely, that’s when we’ll begin.
So baby, take chances, I’m learning to see,
Kick these Micro Management Blues right outta me.
Made with Songer in just 2-3 minutes! BTW, I bought the Life Time PRO license — not sure that was my smartest move. Perhaps just the 100 songs license would have been enough
