The Man Who Married Music Lyrics

Stephen Fearing The Man Who Married Music

I had a dream that you were pregnant and I awoke to pray
That the stork who carries baby songs was headed my way
I was tangled in the sheets, I was torn between the two
The man who married music and the man who married you
Am I over the hill, have I gone around the bend?
I’m out there chasing songs with melodies that never end
And I sing them ‘cause I have to and I love them so I do
The man who married music and the man who married you

Every life is suffering
Every life is pain
Agony and ecstasy are my middle names
Truth is stranger than fiction and strange is what I do
So keep a candle in the window, I’ll be home soon

I know that you can hear me and you’re not the jealous kind
‘Cause on the day we were wed, there were two grooms and two brides
And I stood right beside you and they stood beside us too
The man who married music and the man who married you
I miss you when I’m everywhere
I miss you when I’m home
I miss you when I’m nothing
And when I’m alone
Truth is stranger than fiction and strange is what I do
The man who married music and the man who married you
The man who married music and the man who married you
