Child Bride

A lovely, poignant song

About a man fated to be kept apart from his true love



"well, sometimes i dream of gettin' outta here,

Headin' down towards them old tracks

I swore i'd come and get her

But i know i ain't never goin' back



"there's nights i can't sleep

No matter how hard i try

So from my window i watch the moonlight

Fall on the far hillside



"i imagine i put on my jacket,

Go down to this little roadside bar

Pick a stranger and spin around the dance floor

To a mexican guitar"
