The Wedding Cake

歌詞

Don't be troubled 'bout me cause I'm tired From workin' 'round the house When day is done Don't think you failed me cause you can't afford That dishwasher to make my life more fun You know, the measure of a man is Much more than just the money he can make And every woman knows a lot of joy and tears Come with the wedding cake The wedding cake is not all icing And love and tender whispers in the dark One slice is concern for all your dreams Prayed, they won't come true and break your heart Another slice is feedin' kids and wipin' noses Cryin' when the doorbell rings and there are roses Every woman knows a lot of give and take Comes with the wedding cake It's facin' shadows of the future Prayin' they will fall away as we walk toward them Searchin' for the sun And it's long and anxious hours with the wolf at the door Hugs and kisses when, at last, we see the dawn So when the hands of time trace tellin' lines upon our face And lace our hair with strands of gray We laugh and say for all who will partake It all comes with the wedding cake Yes, for all who will partake It all comes with the wedding cake Yes, for all who will partake It all comes with the wedding cake (fade)
