Friendless Marriage
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Our house never seemed to be so cold like this before
But now the wind blows free between the sills and neath the door
In a four for a dollar photograph that she and I once made
The way she looked at me back then ain't the way she does today
C H O R U S:
In our friendless marriage, our love is gone
Now that she don't care enough to try to save our home
Lord you know it tears me up, where do I belong
With the one who doesn't love me or alone
I can't help but think about mistakes that we have made
I guess when you start out all wrong you end up the same way
To me our love was wild and free like a runaway train
We couldn't have no wedding bells, to hide her Daddy's shame
C H O R U S
She don't seem to smile no more, or look me in the eye
I don't say a thing at all or hold her when she cries
But we weren't raised to run from our responsibilities
So I stay for my baby like my mama stayed for me
C H O R U S
Our house never seemed to be so cold like this before
