Third Wife Lyrics

Mitch Hansen Band Third Wife

I see her eyes on the water
Like staring down the barrel of a gun
I never wanted to be a martyr
If I thought that it would help I'd try to run

I can't believe it
It's all my fault
I feel so helpless
Answer the call
She gave it all, but I'd give too
If it meant protecting you
It's not enough just to want to try
Stone in hand, I'll make my stand
It's not a sacrifice
Just like the third wife

If I was strong I would have fought her
Maybe I should have said my last good-byes
I feel I've lead them to the slaughter
If I had the strength, I probably would cry

I can't believe it
It's all my fault
I feel so helpless
Answer the call
She gave it all, but I'd give two
If it meant protecting you
It's not enough just to want to try
Stone in hand, I'll make my stand
It's not a sacrifice
Just like the third wife
