i was old enough to fall hard
and too young to know better
so i said the vows
and wore the ring
moved cross the country
and made a home
did his laundry
and made him dinner
and loved him better
than i ever knew i could
things got rough
questions were asked
and challenges were made
fights had
punches thrown
curses shouted
i loved him better
than i ever knew i could
i had enough
and told him so
moved home
back to family
back to mountains
dirt roads
coyotes
rabbits on the road
lotsa stars at night
but i still
loved him better
than i ever knew i could
so i ran away
in a circle
to the army
joined up
signed up
swore in
ran
did push ups
sit ups
my damn dog died
my damn sister went to rehab
my damn family was fightin, cryin
but i still
loved him better
than i ever knew i could
i came home again
drank some more beer
smoked some more cigarettes
danced with more men
but i still loved him
better than i ever knew i could
i still loved him
better than i ever knew i could
and too young to know better
so i said the vows
and wore the ring
moved cross the country
and made a home
did his laundry
and made him dinner
and loved him better
than i ever knew i could
things got rough
questions were asked
and challenges were made
fights had
punches thrown
curses shouted
i loved him better
than i ever knew i could
