Author's Bride
Author's Bride
Put out of the kingdom again
seems adultery is still a sin
my body is on fire
in the middle of the night
and I am oh so tired
how I wish that I could fall asleep
Oh how I wish
that my flesh would give me some peace
I hope someday they'll let me back in
until then I guess I'll walk through this land
full of witchcraft and sorcerers and I know
that I am know different than them
I put my head down in the water
and repent
My love, what is my life
I am lonely
and I am a man
sometimes a man must stand up for what is right
even if it means firing your wife
my love forgive me
and I know my true bride
the ones that bring the children
that I name after I write
