Lyrics
Song: Only His Word
Writer(s): Stephen Wrench & Kitty Rivers
He said you have my word and my promise
Things will get better but you’re not known for your promptness
The past is the present you’re still working late
I don’t know how much more of this I can take
I pour some champange the lights are down low
Believing you’ll come home on your say so
I must be crazy I’m still waiting around
Listening to the door to make the slightest sound
Chorus
I put on the perfume he says drives him wild
Turn down the bed he’ll be home in a while
Minutes turn to hours and I know it’s absurd
Wanting to hold him
But sitting here only with his word
When you come home you give no reason at all
You just say your sorry you forgot to call
Always working on your next biggest scheme
What does it matter you have your own dreams
Will you figure this out before I’m long gone
That won’t leave you anything to fall back on
Some dreams turn out to be a nightmare I swear
Like my dream of loving you seems to go nowhere
Repeat chorus
Tag
Yeah sitting here only with his word
