Story Behind The Song
I always like songs that are story driven and have a full circle in them. "I love you baby he said as he walked out the door"....and then the end is "I love you baby he said as he walked through the door".
Song Description
This song starts out as a relationship song, but we soon realize it is a man blinded to the things changing around him. This is a middle aged married couple who are struggling to keep their relationship fresh as things around them are changing.

Lyrics
I love you baby he said as he walked out the door
But I can't take the way that we're fightin' no more
We've got two children, a dog, and this house
We've got fifteen years invested in us
And nothing's changed 'cept you, me, and the world
Nothing's changed 'cept for microwave cookin'
Nothing's changed 'cept the kids way of lookin'
Nothing's changed 'cept the shows I've been watching on tv
I love you baby she said as she gazed through her tears
But we've been feeling this way for the last couple years
We've got three jobs between us, a car we've been given
We worked our way up to middle class livin'
And nothing's changed 'cept you, me, and the world
Nothing's changed 'cept for microwave cookin'
Nothing's changed 'cept the kids way of lookin'
Nothing's changed 'cept the shows I've been watching on tv
I love you baby he said as he walked through the door
And I can't take the way that we're fightin' no more
We've got too much between us to throw it all away
We've got bills to pay but we'll take 'em day by day
Nothing's changed 'cept you, me, and the world
Nothing's changed 'cept for microwave cookin'
Nothing's changed 'cept the kids way of lookin'
Nothing's changed but the shows I've been watching on tv
Nothing's changed 'cept the wars we've been fightin'
Nothing's changed 'cept the country reuniting
Nothing's changed but the news they don't want me to see
Nothing's changing me
