LyricsBarbara was the blushing brideInnocent and teary-eyed Leaning lovely next to her man Andrew with a look of pride Tall and handsome by her side Smiling into the camera lens But the years roll by, they stumble and fall One day she finds Andy is gone If she hadn't been so much to him Maybe she could begin Leading a life on her own Chorus There's a little place down next to your heart Where you go to be your own best friend Don't give it away, you're gonna need it some day You never know when you'll be alone again All the years down at the bank Danny rose up through the ranks A wonder child, then the company man He used to say that midnight oil Elbow grease and sweat and toil That's what made me what I am Then times got hard and they had to let him go With a pink slip and handshake goodbye If he hadn't given all he'd had He wouldn't be so lost and sad Be a little meaning in his life Chorus When Papa's health began to go Deb said "Dad, I think you know It's best if you move in here with me" She didn't mind the endless spiels Washing clothes and cooking meals Taking care of all his needs But now he's gone and the house seems so cold She's wondering how to find her own way If she hadn't given quite so much Maybe now she could touch the joy she buried with him in his grave Chorus |
