The Tail You Cut for Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A small church morning, holy water shined A baptism day where our paths aligned You stood as witness, I was being blessed And fate stepped in, you know the rest A new wave girl from the eighties scene Hazel eyes that stopped me where I'd been You cut your tail off just for me That's when I knew this love was meant to be [Chorus] Oh my darling, my heart and my home Forty years and I'm never alone You're my soulmate, the only one I see Every road I've walked, you walked with me Always love, always there A devotion beyond compare [Verse 2] First date riding with my brother and Sue Laughing in the night, falling for you Two beautiful kids, grandbabies in our arms A house full of kittens and country charm Some came to foster, but they all stayed The sweetest little family we ever made [Chorus] Oh my darling, my heart and my home Forty years and I'm never alone You're my soulmate, the only one I see Every road I've walked, you walked with me Always love, always there A devotion beyond compare [Bridge] Carolyn, my Kegger, my best friend The only one in my heart till the end Leadville sunsets, your hand in mine Gratitude for every grace, every time [Verse 3] Forty years and we're still going strong You're the melody beneath every song From a baptism morning to here tonight Carolyn, you're still my guiding light Whatever roads are left for us to roam With you, my love, I'm always home [Chorus] Oh my darling, my heart and my home Forty years and I'm never alone You're my soulmate, the only one I see Every road I've walked, you walked with me [Outro] Always love, always there Carolyn, my answered prayer
