Carry That Torch

You Hate the sin but love the sinner
I go to work you say, but dont be for dinner
My callus hands, from that factory
Truck wont start, damn thing needs battery

I meant every word I said that day
The day I said I do
Im gonna lay my head down so I can wake up and
I will carry that torch for you

I gotta bag of nails, and a ball pen hammer
Gonna build a house where we can live forever
Got an aching back, so I reach for whiskey
But just enough so the man upstairs still loves me

I meant every word I said that day
The day I said I do
Im gonna lay my head down so I can wake up and
I will carry that torch for you

Years they have come and they have gone
Even tears cant drown the flame that burns on, cuz

When I found you, I grabbed a ladder
Climbed up the rungs where all the angels gather
So, I think I'll cut the grass, this coming satry
If I play my cards right, maybe I'll get lucky

I meant every word I said that day
The day I said I do
Im gonna lay my head down so I can wake up

The morning comes faster now every day
But still I got something to prove, I
Better lay my head down so I can wake up and
I will carry that torch for
You
