Days Of Our Wives Lyrics - Roger Miller

She watches the soaps and pins all her hopes and her dreams 

She lets her mind drift with the scripts that unfold on the screen 

She can't live like they live but each day she sits there and tries 

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our wives 

One life to live, one heart to give to her man 

She's raising her babies and doing the best that she can 

So she watches the soaps and sometimes just sits there and cries 

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our wives 

So fly away heart on the wings of make believe things 

It's nice to pretend and maybe cry at the end 

So she watches the soaps and sometimes just sits there and cries 

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our wives 

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our wives
