Morning finds her there

Starring at the walls

Feeling so detached

Has their love dissolved?

A dead end job

Husband drinks too much

Kids that disobey

Has she lost her way?

Has she gone insane?

Waited far to long?

She has to right what’s wrong

She has to end this pain

She has to stay or run away

There’s a family here

Love once filled this home

There is more to lose than gain

Starts with mending wounds

And healing hearts

Starts giving first

And no more harm

Starts with Love

After 12 long hours

For a meager wage

He heads for home

On the midnight train

Maybe one quick drink

At the corner bar

Maybe two to ease the pain

And one more for the road

He loves his wife

But he hates his life

Something has to change

He has to end this game

Find a way to make her stay

There’s a family here

Love once filled this home

There’s more to gain than lose

Starts with mending wounds

And healing hearts

Starts giving first

And no more harm

Starts with Love

A late night snack

In the kitchen there

Finds them starring cross the floor

When their eyes connect

And their hearts detect

Feel each other’s pain

Tears just flow like rain

And they dare to touch

Reaching out for love

In each other’s arms

And without a word

They just fall apart

Vowing never to let go

There’s a family here

Love once filled this home

There’s more here to gain than lose

Starts with mending wounds

And healing hearts

Starts giving first

And no more harm

Starts with Love
