Story of Woe


Listen dear friend to a story of woe
About a time long ago
A young man who loved his wife
He would have given her his life

But she said no
She must go
Something not right
She leaving him tonight


She packs up her things
As he stands alone
He sees now
This house is not his home

And he wonders
Looking at his wedding ring
Did they tie the knot with a broken string

But she said no
She must go
Something not right
She leaving him tonight


Bridge:
And can’t you see
What
Is happing to me
Please stay
Just for one more day

This can’t be the end
How did this happen
Please stop and just listen
I love you
I thought you love me to


But she said no
She must go
Something not right
She leaving him tonight


She walks out the door
Has she done this before?
Is this just a dream
He wakes up I scream

She’s been gone for 3 years…
