FAWM 2021 #5: Wonderful Life

Inspired by a PostSecret card.

Lyrics

Chorus

Feels...Like...I
Owe my wonderful life
To a man I don't even know:
That bastard stole my wife
Near 'bout forty years ago.
I'd gladly shake his hand,
Once I've knocked him on his can.
Cheers to you, sir,
For my wonderful life

Verse

She left a note...
"I'm sorry," she wrote,
"You deserve
A better wife.
I just wish...
It could've been different.
Goodbye..I hope you
find a better life."

(repeat chorus)

Verse

Through the years,
And the many tears,
I find I can say,
"She was right."
Loving someone
Who's loving me back.
Is waking from darkness,
And finding the light.

(repeat chorus and tag)
