My precious wife, |
|
I am in shambles |
|
I am crumbling, |
|
I am Was it something |
|
I did Bid the tide to climb so high that it ripped our shore up |
|
I can fix it, |
|
I swear If you trust me |
|
I am old and |
|
I am rusting but |
|
I care I care |
|
My precious wife, we made a promise |
|
Pledged our flesh to be one |
|
How can you doubt a love that stood so proud as we raised our children |
|
I believe in it still |
|
It has faltered and it has faded |
|
But I know it's there |
|
How'd it change |
|
The way you thought of me |
|
How strange to think we once were lovers |
|
Now we've wrapped the past up in broken glass |
|
And when you speak my name you shudder |
|
Oh precious wife, believe |
|
I'll save this |
|
I'll revive it, |
|
I will We've built a family from this marriage |
|
Why would you tear it apart |
|
Oh speak now, precious |
|
Your silence screams |
|
You're giving in to failure |
|
Hear me, the promise that you made was meant to live forever |
|
Until our deathbed, you're not allowed to change your mind |
|
Was there nothing in that promise |
|
Are you listening to me |
|
Oh husband, |
|
I could not control it |
|
Husband, I could not abstain |
|
One cannot stop the wind from blowing |
|
Nor refuse the falling rain |
|
Love stirred up a storm inside me |
|
Wrapped it's arms around my waist |
|
I failed you dear, |
|
I'm sorry, oh |
|
I'm sorry |
|
There was nothing |
|
I could do |
|
No, there was nothing |
|
I could Sure as the rain will fall |
|
Some love just fails without reason |
|
There is nothing you can do |
|
There is nothing you can do |
|
There is nothing you can do |
|
There is nothing you can do |
