Ellen Harper - Altar of Love lyrics

She was his high school sweetheart, 'til d**h do them part Wife of so many years, been through blood sweat and tears She raises his kids, while he went out and did All of those things a successful man does He always works late, determines his own fate He's found his true match, he's found his soul mate Sorry he says, sorry he feels Can't help himself he fell head over heels And now she's another wife and a mother Sacrificed on the alter of love She's just another wife and a mother Earning her righteous place up above Beautiful stranger, she's so enthralled She hangs on every word, makes him feel like god Pleads with his dear wife, but she's heard it all twice With stars in his eyes, it's true love! he cries And now she's another, wife and a mother Sacrificed on the alter of love She's just another wife and a mother Earning her righteous place up above
