My story has only two characters
A woman, and also a man
Now she had some bad things happen to her

And he just would not understand
He figured she'd deal with her troubles
No bigger than bricks in a wall

And maybe they'd make a great couple
One day when she's dealt with them all
But she said you have to be here for this really

You have to come and see for yourself
You have to know how I'm feeling
You cannot ask nobody else

But you do, 'cause you don't want to worry your head
But I won't love you when I am dead
