when ends don't meet

when the rain comes down

through the hole in the roof

and every nail in the house

is coming loose

a for sale sign stuck in the yard

the day it sells is gonna break her heart

she knows i'm out there doing the best i can

trying to keep these wolves away with my bare hands

we work and scrape and fight and pray until it hurts

i lean on her

she leans on me

that's what we do

when ends don't meet

when i drag it home

dead on my feet

if she worries at all

she don't let on to me

her simple smile can say so much

her ten dollar dress looks like a million bucks

she knows i'm out there doing the best i can

trying to keep these wolves away with my bare hands

we work and scrape and fight and pray until it hurts

i lean on her

she leans on me

that's what we do

when ends don't meet

we hold on a little longer

a little tighter

a little stronger

we love a little deeper

and we dance across the kitchen

she knows i'm out there doing the best i can

trying to keep these wolves away with my bare hands

we work and scrape we fight and pray until it hurts

i lean on her

she leans on me

that's what we do

yeah that's what we do

when ends don't meet
