Handsome Wife - Pillow Queens

Falling for and far tonight

You and yours and my handsome wife

That divil just went and stole the show

So I’m letting every gold hair grow

Nothing like a kiss goodnight

It tastes like ‘til the day I die

Oh I wish I could have known

I’m the one that never gets old

This sore sad city never skips a beat

While I’m sitting sweet in the passenger seat

Going home and growing strong

The silence is so soft, I’m gonna be free

I was young and I was honest

Me and all your father’s daughters

Laid beside the tide to take us

Kissed the bride and fought your favours

I may not be the wife you want

But I’m pregnant with the virgin tongue

Pave the way for calm to come

With all the pace of Sundays gone

It’s too bad surely to admit defeat

With these hands so neat between my teeth

‘Til the right man comes along, singing the right song

But when the right man comes along, singing the right song

It’s gonna be me

I was young and I was honest

Me and all your father’s daughters

Laid beside the tide to take us

Kissed the bride and fought your favours

I may not be the wife you want

But I’m pregnant with the virgin tongue

I may not be the wife you want

But I’m pregnant with the virgin tongue
