Was it the aching of your wrists
G C G
Or just because of your weathered eyes
G C Em
Was it the shake in your clenching fists
Or the hollow pass of time
G C G
Was it the aging of her hips
G C G
Or the way that my mother always cried
G C Em G
Was it the taste of another's lips
C G
For which you put down your fight
G C G
Had you forgotten her long white dress
G C G
How pretty she looked coming down the isle
G Em G
You asked her to love you and she said yes
C D G
And she loved you like a child
G C G
Had you forgotten those long hard days
G C G
Coming home to your lover most every night

She'd wait for you to step off of that train
C D G
She's been waiting all her life

Love is getting your hands dirty

Love is bleeding all over each other

Love is sharing the same burden

It's dying together

I feel the weight of her broken prayer

Twenty Three years begging you to care

For your tired and lonely wife
