Husbands and Wives Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Two broken hearts, lonely, lookin' like houses
Where nobody lives
Two people each havin' so much pride inside
Neither side forgives

[Chorus]
The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
It's my belief pride is the chief cause in the decline
In the number of husbands and wives

[Bridge]
A woman and a man, a man and a woman
Some can, some can't, some can't

[Verse 2]
Oh, two broken hearts lonely lookin' like houses
Where nobody lives
Two people each havin' so much pride inside
Neither side forgives

[Chorus]
The angry words spoken in haste
Such a waste of two lives
Oh, it's my belief pride is the chief cause in the decline
In the number of husbands and wives
[Outro]
Yeah, it's my belief pride is the chief cause in the decline
In the number of husbands and wives

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
