He's in some bar a drinkin' she's home alone again
|
He's in town buyin' rounds and laughin' with his friends
|
His supper's on the table still he ain't come home
|
She's lookin' out the window with a front porch light on.
|
|
She's the woman in every man's life
|
A candle in the window on the darkest night
|
A sister and a mother a lover and a wife
|
She's a woman in every man's life.
|
|
She's a standin' in the kitchen ironin' his shirt
|
Tears fall on the collar like little drops of hurt
|
When he's spent his money he'll stumble home again
|
And she'll get out bed and turn on light and let him in.
|
|
She's the woman in every man's life
|
A candle in the window on the darkest night
|
A sister and a mother a lover and a wife
|
She's a woman in every man's life.
|
|
Somehow she defends him again and again
|
She'll stand up to her mother and hide it from her friends
|
And somehow she forgives him for all he's guilty of
|
And that takes a lot of woman that takes a lot of love.
|
|
She's the woman in every man's life
|
A candle in the window on the darkest night
|
A sister and a mother a lover and a wife
|
She's a woman in every man's life.
|
|
She's the woman in every man's life
|
A candle in the window on the darkest night
|
A sister and a mother a lover and a wife
|
She's a woman in every man's life...
