lyrics

Fell in love she was only 18
Quit school got married though it broke her daddy’s heart
I’m not so young I don’t know what I am doing
Got a job as a secretary
Didn’t have much money but their dreams were wealth enough
And their love was strong it kept them growing
Life was good and they raised a child
Til one day she woke up to see her life just slipping away
Tried to let it go but the cracks were showing
Now every night she cries herself to sleep
He goes out drinking he won’t tell her where he’s been
Doesn’t know how it got so complicated
Every day it’s the same old scene
Fight over nothing grieve for what they lost
Had it all how did we get so old and jaded
Raise my head to the dirty sky
I said for better or worse though it broke my daddy’s heart
I know it’s not too late if you still love me
Winter sun through the frozen trees
The nights are long and he holds her in his arms
I know it isn’t perfect but it could be
