23 Years (Acoustic) Lyrics by Corey Kilgannon

Soften, Continue (Another B-Sides)

0

Was it the aching of your wrists
Or just because of your weathered eyes
Was it the shake in your clenching fist
Or the hollow pass of time
Was it the ageing of her hips
Or the way that my mother always cried
Was it the taste of another's lips
For which you put down your fight
Had you forgotten your long white dress
How pretty she looked coming down the aisle
You asked her to love you, she said "yes"
She loved you like a child
Had you forgotten those long hard days
Coming home to who you love the most every night
She'd wait for you to step off that train
She's been waiting all her life
Love is getting your hands dirty
Love is bleeding all over each other
Love is sharing the same burdens
Love is not living, it's dying
Love is getting your hands dirty
Love is bleeding all over each other
Love is sharing the same burdens
Love is not living, it's dying
It's dying together
