I love Country and Western lyrics, they always tell a story. This is really good and I'd love to hear it sung. You obviously have a talent for writing songs, I am wondering if you have any published? Well done, a real pleasure to read. xsx Sandra

This is so amazingly beautiful. The country music ('am not too knowledgeable on this), as you say is classy that it takes the breath out of you. With all the frailties that you have, your wife still tolerates and loves you, you just succumb to her understanding and affection. There's no better angel in life. So poignantly written.

Constructed with utmost care to keep the partner afresh with the changing world. So brightly exposed the natural beauty that we could only enjoy the love. No such wonder beyond this world of nature.
Read by nature poets and humanitarians.

Brett: I love these lyrics! And, you didn't need to explain what they meant because the story is quite clear. I was once married to a functioning alcoholic but 16 years of it was too much for me and I needed to leave the situation for my own sanity. She may be an angel but one day she will go . . .Good writing and I can hear your song being sung by any of many great male country singers (or female) livelylinda

They are very good lyrics, with a realistic story line, I can imagine such a scenario. Your rhyming is excellent and the message is very clear. Just wondered if you ever decided to get these published, I could probably help you with the meter and rhythm. I am a proof reader and editor by profession and pride myself on 'flawless meter and rhythm' in my own poetry (quote from my reviews). Most enjoyable. Faye

The artwork is absolutely beautiful and complements your lyric poem perfectly. I can't judge if it can be sung. But you give a clear message about alcoholism. Stopping is not easy, the wife is an angel. Rhymes all the way.

I agree with you. These lyrics are great.

When I took ill, my ex became an alcoholic and it is so hard.

I love the refrain.

In the same way as reading improves our writing, listening to country music will influence your lyrics.

You are very talented, my friend.

still want to hear them with a melody though :)

They say the first step to help is realizing and accepting that you need help. This is very touching and very well written. Good job.
Take care.

I liked this song. The only thing I didn't like was the over use of 'me.' It made the words to the song very jerky and stopped the otherwise smooth flow. Thank you for sharing. Well liked.
