A Wife's Pledge

I am watching over the little stars Twinkling in pairs across my eyes so far Through my empty bedroom windows The clock ticking.... It's a few minutes to midnight And my hubby is not home yet I know he cheats Maybe he tip toes in the lodging room With a "small she" side by side The clock is ticking... It's a few minutes past midnight And my lover staggers in our bedroom Lipstick on his shirt I will still keep my pledge For better for worse like I vowed Until he comes back to me even in old age My cheating hubby
