Friendless Marriage
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
