Lyrics
Nowhere Near the End
It?s been a little while since they walked down the isle,
And tonight the words carry a sting.
He spends his time on the car, she runs up the credit card,
Love takes work, and they?re still both learning.
She cries," Have we reached the end." As her eyes fill up with tears,
He pulls her close and whispers a promise in her ear.
Chorus
This may not be our finest hour
But you and I are going all the way
We can?t know what the future holds
But on this you can depend
We?re nowhere near the end
Through the window pane, in the pouring rain
She hears him yell as he rushes in,
"Honey, grab the baby, if we?re lucky maybe
That cursed river won?t take our land again."
He worries how they?ll pay the bills, and his face fills up with fear.
She pulls him close and whispers a promise in his ear.
Chorus
Instrumental Break
He gently strokes her hair while she?s lying there,
"The operation?s done, we?ll start again.
She begins to cry, worries that he?ll find
She won?t be the woman that she?s been.
He says, "This won?t change a thing. I?ll always love you, dear."
He pulls her close and whispers that old promise in her ear.
Chorus
