New Storms For Older Lovers letra

I've come here as a man in shambles
Worn out from begging on my knees
Please, I'm just trying to keep my family together
Now, when you saw your lover wore a ring around her finger
Why didn't you stop
I have half a mind to make you hurt
To make you bleed, to make you suffer
I swear if you've touched her
Oh, heaven forgive what I would do to you
You monster
Think about your children
They'll never believe what you've done
Listen, I am begging you, back off
Let me rebuild the things you've shattered
She meant it
I swear that she meant it
She whispered so often
Husband, I'll always be here with you
But always, always, always, always, always, always
Always is valueless
I wish I'd never heard her speak a word

And I hope you see us
Your wife and your children and I
Buried in the wreckage of your crime
While you're laying down your sins
Softly leaning in to kiss your guilt goodnight

She is mine, she is
She is mine
You stole her, somehow tricked her
But we'll survive, we will
We'll survive
She loves me dearly
You'll see
You are blind, you are
You are blind
She loves me dearly
Loves me she

Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in, breathe
He finally paused to take a breathe and then looked down
It felt like staring into hell
The man was seated in a chair before him silent
A statue framed in pain and flesh
He thought, what more can I say to sway him
To make the statue speak
I swear he's made of stone and I am barely stirring up breeze
I'm barely stirring up a breeze
And after waiting in the silence
Finally turned around to leave
Broken and barely through the doorway
Breathing slowly, beating hard
He heard him speak
I guess love's a funny thing
The way it fades away without a warning
It doesn't ask to be excused
And when it's gone, oh it's gone
It ain't ever coming back
There is nothing you can do to save it
To make it breathe the way it did
When you were sliding on the ring
Trust me, it's gone for good
Now there is nothing you can do stop me
She is happy when she is with me
And I am, I am finally alive
I'm sorry
