Lyrics
Faint of Heart
Just wakin' up, sittin' at the table
Writin' a letter to you
The children are sleepin', the coffee is drippin'
Morning ain't morning without you
You're out there working, a truck driving living
The road is home to you
Chorus
I miss you so much, my heart's torn apart
This love I have for you, ain't for the faint of heart
Kids ready for school, dog in the yard
Making all of them beds
Washing and cleaning, dustin and dryin'
Part-time working don't end
Makin' ends meet, putting shoes on our feet
Lord knows we got to eat
Chorus
Strugglin' with myself, I'm a lone soul at midnight
Battle pay is low, home front an endless fight
Checking the bills, no money for frills
Singing the down and out blues
I'll have to share with an empty chair
Can't get a message to you
Day is just ending, I'll keep on bending
Get down on my knees
It's when I'm doing nothing, the hurt becomes something
The love I have for you, ain't for the faint of heart
