《The Deal》歌词

[00:00:05] There was a gentleman I knew

[00:00:15] A stroke held his wife fast asleep

[00:00:31] And his whole life had come down to

[00:00:46] The vigil he would daily keep

[00:00:57] I asked would he rather be free

[00:01:14] And this is how he answered me

[00:01:25] That's the deal that's the bargain that you make

[00:01:35] That's the vow that two hearts take

[00:01:41] That if better turns to worse you will abide

[00:01:50] That's the deal if it were not for God's grace

[00:01:59] I might be there in her place and she'd be right by my side

[00:02:08] That's the deal

[00:02:09] In my mind I still hear him talk

[00:02:19] I keep those words like souvenirs

[00:02:46] Brought from a place where couples walk

[00:02:56] Arm in arm through this veil of tears

[00:03:00] I pray someday for my own sake

[00:03:07] I find the heart I'll never break

[00:03:21] That's the deal that's the bargain that you make

[00:03:30] That's the vow that two hearts take

[00:03:37] That if better turns to worse you will abide

[00:03:42] That's the deal if it were not for God's grace

[00:03:48] I might be there in her place and she'd be right by my side

[00:04:04] That's the deal

[00:04:15] That's the deal that's the deal
