Your mama and your daddy, they knew their love was true
But I came out eight months after my mama said I do
It's not that they were lying, they were looking down the road
But I can't help but to think of love as something that can come and go
So honey, I'm doubtful
Honey, I'm hopeful
Honey, I'm a handful
But I'm a hand you can hold
Honey, I'm reticent
I'm a southern accident
But, honey, I'm here
And I'm gonna let it go
You took family vacation, I never learned to ski
On weekends, I'd hide in my bedroom, watch too much MTV
It's not that there was yelling, but the silence was thick
That's why when I get angry, you'd never know it
Honey, I'm doubtful
Honey, I'm hopeful
Honey, I'm a handful
But I'm a hand you can hold
Honey, I'm reticent
I'm a southern accident
But, honey, I'm here
And I'm gonna let it go
Oh, it's a coming of age
And a ticking of the clock
Oh, some folks dream to settle
Oh, some folks say: Why not?
But I don't see the hurry
Wanna love you through all the seasons
And you see the good, the bad and leave me
Don't love me for any other reason
And I'm doubtful
Honey, I'm hopeful
Honey, I'm a handful
But I'm a hand you can hold
Honey, I'm reticent
I'm a southern accident
But, honey, I'm here
And I'm gonna let it go
