Hearin the screams, listenin to the cries
I wanna reach out and touch you,
Hold you tight
Early mornin tells the tale of last nights story
A black eye and a bloody lip.
Just tryin to forget.
The bottles layin empty on the table
And theres a piece of shattered glass on the floor
Babys cryin and moms hidin
Daddys gone to work, gotta make a dime
Gotta feed the thirst, the bottles callin his name.
Its the middle of the day and theres a man at the door
Hes got a bouquet of flowers, he says its for her.
Theres a card thats got her name on it, its from him
He says hes sorry, and please forgive me.
Well promises can be broken, and bruises fade.
Hes home and theres a bottle in his hand and
A sway to his walk and hes yellin for her.
It didnt take much cause shes on the floor
Barley breathin and prayin that this isnt the end.
Well fate plays a cruel hand cause
The babys cryin and shes not movin anymore
Theres glass on the floor, and hes not there
Theres a man at the corner thats sayin nothings gonna be alright
And heavens got another angel, but he can still hear the babies cryin
And moms still screamin and tonights another night and flowers are gonna wilt.
