Bilingual
They met at a bar
That Tuesday with friends
Wasn't nothing special 'bout it
That's where it all begins
Looking in his eyes
Felt like she was home
Woke up the next morning
Right there in his arms
She always thought that she'd end up alone
But that word don't work no more
They bought a little house
Where the porch never ends
Flag there in the front yard
Dog inside the fence
He's two months in
To a new job on the shore
She's two weeks late
And crying on the bathroom floor
Way up there, God's laughing at their plans
But that word don't work no more
No more
She burns the casserole
The kids have made a mess
He ain't stuck in traffic
No, he's out with the boys again
He stumbles in half-drunk
Quarter after four
Drops the keys a couple times
Slams the old front door
Stands in the kitchen asking for forgiveness
But that word don't work no more
No more saying "I'm sorry"
No more "Baby, don't go"
We use the words too many times
They lose their meaning, lose their rhymes
On this long and crooked road
They sit across the table
Couple papers to sign
Hashing out Saturdays
And who gets Christmas time
He'll get an apartment
Above the liquor store
They'll never get back
To the way they were before
They'll walk out to the parking lot together
But that word don't work no more
