16.And The Curtains Close

(*Jeffrey Hatcher/Kim Clarke)


Well she tries to hide what's been going on*
Holding back the tears when she's on the phone
All the years of pain that have been disguised can not be denied

Is there no where to go
When the words turn to blows
And the fists start to fly
And the children hide and the curtain's closed

Well her friends have tried
They know that something's wrong
But he says he loves her
So she carries on
There's the kids, the house
So much at stake for her to make a break

Is there no where to go
When the words turn to blows
And the fists start to fly
And the children hide and the curtain's closed

She's scared and it shows
Is there no where to go
Like like a fist flying arose
Now the circle has closed
Will the world that she knows
End this way

So they talk all night
He says he's to blame
And he buys her back
With promises again
Now the tears are dry
It's a sober game till it happens again

Is there no where to go
When the words turn to blows
And the fists start to fly
And the children hide and the curtain's closed

Will the world that she knows
End this way

Ah they talk all night
He says that he's to blame
And he buys her back
With promises again
Now the tears are dry
It's a sober game till it happens again

Is there no where to go
When the words turn to blows
The fists start to fly
And the children hide and the curtain's closed

When the fists start to fly
All the children hide and the curtain's closed
