A Northern Bride
I am the last
In a long line of conquests
Completed the contest
And made you my own
I've flattered your friends
And slept with you nightly
And not even slightly
Complained about home
'Cause time isn't on my side
There's some things
A woman can't hide
I tidy your home
I speak with your mother
And even your brother
Can tell you
I try to be good for you
With no appreciation
The depreciation
My life has come through
Means this is my final try
To get what I'm sure, I deserve
Like love understanding
Joy and a child
A partner who thinks
That I'm worthless
I've written this note
Explaining the reason
I'm leaving, this season
You dropped out the league
I've transferred away
I'm heading for mother
Tomorrow my father
Will come for my things
'Cause time isn't on my side
There's some things
A woman can't hide from
Like love, understanding
Joy and a child
A partner who thinks
That I'm worthless
