Fourteen Days

[Verse 1]

Darling, I was married when I met you
And I guess I should’ve told you at the time
But I knew that girl since school
And I was such a fool to make her mine

Darling, I was young and I was fickle
Oh, love was just a trickle, until you drown
I took her fear for love
But she’d love you just enough to keep you around

[Chorus]

Oh, fourteen days of pouring rain
With a shiver I can’t shake
Come hell or high water, I pray that I taught her
Love ain’t a given, it’s all give and take

[Verse 2]

Well darling, I was sober ’til I met her
So how’d I get here drinking like a fish
Oh, our love was longer
And stronger than the wall that broke my fist

And darling, I was wise and she was wily
Oh, something in her eyes gave her away
And I just pray that she learns before her
Body returns to the clay

[Chorus]

Oh, fourteen days of pouring rain
With a shiver I can’t shake
Come hell or high water, I pray that I taught her
Love ain’t a given, it’s all give and take

Oh, fourteen days of pouring rain
With a shiver I can’t shake
Come hell or high water, I pray that I taught her
Love ain’t a given, it’s all give and take
