When Her & I Began lyrics

I keep a picture in my wallet Of a love I used to know We spent every dollar we had On every credit card we owed And maybe that's what did us in Or the time our house foreclosed We forgot the vows we said as kids In our parents’ wedding clothes In our parents' wedding clothes It never used to be this way We'd dance from night ‘till day We drove past graveyards And I looked at her and said We ain’t going out like that, you know? Our kids won't come from a broken home And I remember she smiled and took my hand Back when her and I began We spent months on different schedules She worked days and I worked nights We'd come home to civil wars That were only stupid fights So we just kept digging our own graves So I signed those papers and I hid ‘Cause I can't forget the day the judge said I wasn't fit to take the kids I wasn't fit to take the kids I wasn't fit to take the kids It never used to be this way We'd dance from night ‘till day We drove past graveyards And I looked at her and said We ain’t going out like that, you know? Our kids won’t come from a broken home And I remember she smiled and took my hand Back when her and I began It never used to be this way We'd dance from night ‘till day We drove past graveyards And I looked at her and said We ain’t going out like that, you know? Our kids won't come from a broken home And I remember she smiled and took my hand Back when her and I began When her and I began
