Verse 1
He called to say, I’ll be a little late
And, honey I’m real sorry
I said, that’s okay, I’ve got stops to make
After work, so don’t you worry
Lift 1
Somethin’ in his voice didn’t seem quite right
So I headed my car down to exit 5
Found his truck outside the local pub
Where we’d first met and fell in love
But that was before. . .
Chorus
A thirty year loan on a house of our own
Before two kids were finally grown
Before all the bills
Took romantic thrills. . .away
Before our dreams began to fade
Day by day. . .
‘Till it wasn’t like . . . Before. . .
Verse 2
Saw him with her as I snuck into the bar
As she was leaning his way
When she touched his arm, I saw red in the dark
‘Till the moment I heard him say
Lift 2
Yeah, I come here from time to time
Just to reminisce ‘bout when it was right
See this photo of my wife and kids
It’s nice rememberin’ how she loved me then
But that was before. . .
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
I found out, I’m the only woman that he lives for
And when he finally walked in our back door
I gave him a wink . . . an ole’ familiar grin
Then I led him to a place he’d been. . .
Before. . .
Repeat Chorus
Mmmm, mm, mm…..Before
