It's so hard to be strong
When your husband is gone Mrs. Xavier
And your children need you
But you need someone too Mrs. Xavier
It's so hard to be strong
When your husand is gone Mrs. Xavier
And your children need you
But you need someone too Mrs. Xavier
And there's no one listening
When you cry your tears
He's been gone six months now
But it seems like years
And it's hard on your own
I'm taking you out
I'm taking you out tonight
I'm taking you out
To where you can feel alright
You're not alone tonight
Well you've washed and you've scrubbed
And you've wept and you've loved Mrs. Xavier
And you've worked for so long you don't know anymore Mrs. Xavier
Friday evening
And you're not home yet
You've been out there drinking
Cos you're so upset
And it's hard to hold on
I'm taking you out
I'm taking you out tonight
I'm taking you out
To where you can feel alright
You're not alone tonight
And I would love to come and live with you
But I don't know if I would ever do
They say that when our love is gone
We don't carry on, but they're wrong
I'm taking you out
I'm taking you out tonight
I'm taking you out
To where you can feel alright
You're not alone tonight
And I would love to come and live with you
btu I don't know if I would ever do
They say that when our love is gone
We don't carry on, but they're wrong
