My precious wife, I am in shambles<br />
I am crumbling, I am<br />
Was it something I did<br />
Bid the tide to climb so high that it ripped our shore up<br />
I can fix it, I swear<br />
If you trust me<br />
I am old and I am rusting but I care<br />
I care<br />
<br />
My precious wife, we made a promise<br />
Pledged our flesh to be one<br />
How can you doubt a love that stood so proud as we raised our children<br />
I believe in it still<br />
It has faltered and it has faded<br />
But I know it's there<br />
How'd it change<br />
The way you thought of me<br />
How strange to think we once were lovers<br />
Now we've wrapped the past up in broken glass<br />
And when you speak my name you shudder<br />
Oh precious wife, believe I'll save this<br />
I'll revive it, I will<br />
We've built a family from this marriage<br />
Why would you tear it apart<br />
<br />
Oh speak now, precious<br />
Your silence screams<br />
You're giving in to failure<br />
Hear me, the promise that you made was meant to live forever<br />
Until our deathbed, you're not allowed to change your mind<br />
Was there nothing in that promise<br />
Are you listening to me<br />
<br />
Oh husband, I could not control it<br />
Husband, I could not abstain<br />
One cannot stop the wind from blowing<br />
Nor refuse the falling rain<br />
Love stirred up a storm inside me<br />
Wrapped it's arms around my waist<br />
I failed you dear, I'm sorry, oh I'm sorry<br />
There was nothing I could do<br />
No, there was nothing I could<br />
Sure as the rain will fall<br />
Some love just fails without reason<br />
There is nothing you can do<br />
There is nothing you can do<br />
There is nothing you can do<br />
There is nothing you can do
