I've Created A Monster Lyrics - Singles - Romanovsky And Phillips

(The best laid plans of love and support can backfire...) 

I remember fondly the days when we first met 

You were shy and awkward, afraid of life and yet 

You were enchanting and so cute 

Your innocence was charming as was your naivete 

But now it seems you've learned the ropes and much to my dismay 

You have become much more astute 

And I'm afraid I've made a big mistake 

By giving you the confidence to get you on your feet 

Now you are so self-assured 

It borders on conceit 

Oh it seems I've made a monster out of you 

You were terrified of people when I knew you long ago 

You'd never go to parties, you'd rather stay at home 

And be with just the two of us 

But still I tried to push you to come out of your shell 

I didn't ask you to forget me darlin' but I might as well 

Have said to leave me in your dust 

And I'm afraid I've made a big mistake 

By teaching you the social skills you previously lacked 

Now your popularity's 

An undisputed fact 

Oh it seems I've made a monster out of you 

Oh why, why, why did I encourage your individuality? 

You were perfectly content to live in co-dependency 

You used to lean on me for strength 

I gladly gave you my support 

But now you've fallen out of love 

And all my dreams have fallen short 

I thought perhaps together we both could be secure 

But now I am the frightened one and you're not even sure 

That you still want to be with me 

Now you can't stop your flirting almost everywhere we go 

All the men are fawning and you just can't say "no" 

To every handsome face you see 

And I'm afraid I've made a big mistake 

By giving you the love that you've so often been denied 

Now my love is not enough 

To keep you satisfied 

Oh it seems I've made a monster out of you
