For Better For Worse

For Better For Worse - Old Man Markley

For better for worse

Love's a blessing love's a curse

She's an angel I'm just a man

I'll always love her till I can't stand

For better for worse

Love's a blessing love's a curse

She's an angel I'm just a man

I'll always love her till I can't stand

But I met her on a Sunday

She was standing in the sun

I picked up some wild roses

Asked her could I be the one

She smiled and took my hand

An angel's vision standing there

She kissed me on the cheeks

And threw my roses in the air

For better for worse

Love's a blessing love's a curse

She's an angel I'm just a man

I'll always love her till I can't stand

April showers brought the mud

Puddles littered under foot

I threw down my brand new jacket

Want it messing up her looks

She jumped across that puddle

Picked up my dirty coat

She tossed it in the garbage

And my heart sank in that moat

For better for worse

Love's a blessing love's a curse

She's an angel I'm just a man

I'll always love her till I can't stand

And now the trees turn shades of blood

As the days were getting short

Wished I could have kissed you baby

Sitting swinging on the porch

But you blew me off completely

No matter how I tried

I didn't want to face it

But I knew the truth inside

For better for worse

Love's a blessing love's a curse

She's an angel I'm just a man

I'll always love her till I can't stand

My winter coat was red

Like the color of her dress

Now I held her one last time

Then I laid her down to rest

Well I gave her every chance

Well she should have realized

That's why they had me locked away

That's why she had to die

For better for worse

Love's a blessing love's a curse

She's an angel I'm just a man

I'll always love her till I can't stand

I always loved her but she had a man
