The Tatty Truth - Not For Mine

Slowly up the aisle walked the pregnant bride
Carrying her bouquet and her unborn child
Shamed by blood and maybe too much wine
Her father weeping for his damaged pride

He waits to see what mood comes through the door
What new offence does he have to answer for
He only hears what he wants to hear
She knows what it's like to always live in fear

I close my eyes and dream of all my crimes
Jesus died for your sins and not for mine
I seek to ease and cleanse my troubled mind
Jesus died for your sins and not for mine

It's in the eyes. They never lie
Wipe your tears darling don't you cry
As time passes your memory fades
Soon you'll realise how you've been betrayed

I close my eyes and dream of all my crimes
Jesus died for your sins and not for mine
I seek to ease and cleanse my troubled mind
Jesus died for your sins and not for mine

I close my eyes and dream of all my crimes
Jesus died for your sins and not for mine
I seek to ease and cleanse my troubled mind
Jesus died for your sins and not for mine
