Marriage and why mine works...

I was in the car the other night, driving somewhere, and this song came on the radio. Do you recognize it?

I do. Sheryl Crow. Her words. Love her.

This is why my marriage works. I'm not perfect. Far from it. This song, it pulls me. Read it through.

Really, read it, all the way through.

God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot lie
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?

Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone tonight
Cause you can't change the way I am
Are you strong enough to be my man?

Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave

I have a face I cannot show
I make the rules up as I go
Just try and love me if you can
Are you strong enough to be my man?

When I've shown you that I just don't care
When I'm throwing punches in the air
When I'm broken down and I can't stand
Would you be man enough to be my man?

Lie to me
I promise I'll believe
Lie to me
But please don't leave
