Altar Of Love Lyrics - Childhood Home - Ben Harper

She was his high school sweetheart, 'til death do them part 

Wife of so many years, been through blood sweat and tears 

She raises his kids, while he went out and did 

All of those things a successful man does 

He always works late, determines his own fate 

He's found his true match, he's found his soul mate 

Sorry he says, sorry he feels 

Can't help himself he fell head over heels 

And now she's another wife and a mother 

Sacrificed on the alter of love 

She's just another wife and a mother 

Earning her righteous place up above 

Beautiful stranger, she's so enthralled 

She hangs on every word, makes him feel like god 

Pleads with his dear wife, but she's heard it all twice 

With stars in his eyes, it's true love! he cries

Earning her righteous place up above
