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 do…      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 turning…      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 turning…      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 you……
