I keep a picture in my wallet
Of a love I used to know
We spent every dollar we had
On every credit card we owed
And maybe that's what did us in
Or the time our house foreclosed
We forgot the vows we said as kids
In our parents’ wedding clothes
In our parents' wedding clothes
It never used to be this way
We'd dance from night ‘till day
We drove past graveyards
And I looked at her and said
We ain’t going out like that, you know?
Our kids won't come from a broken home
And I remember she smiled and took my hand
Back when her and I began
We spent months on different schedules
She worked days and I worked nights
We'd come home to civil wars
That were only stupid fights
So we just kept digging our own graves
So I signed those papers and I hid
‘Cause I can't forget the day the judge said
I wasn't fit to take the kids
I wasn't fit to take the kids
I wasn't fit to take the kids
It never used to be this way
We'd dance from night ‘till day
We drove past graveyards
And I looked at her and said
We ain’t going out like that, you know?
Our kids won’t come from a broken home
And I remember she smiled and took my hand
Back when her and I began
It never used to be this way
We'd dance from night ‘till day
We drove past graveyards
And I looked at her and said
We ain’t going out like that, you know?
Our kids won't come from a broken home
And I remember she smiled and took my hand
Back when her and I began
When her and I began
