my wife will soon be home
from her day of teaching
and if she knew i was sad
she would start preaching

that I should call pdoc
like he can do anything about it
it's something that happens
no need for her to have a fit

so I'll go on auto pilot
and she won't know anything's wrong
I can't talk to her about it
I won't sing her this song

but if you could just see me
when she gets home tonight
you would see the determination
you would see all my fight

cuz you wouldn't recognize me
I do this for her
so she won't go off
and have her own emotions b'come a blur
