There was a woman who loved her man More than she loved herself Dirtnap one day took him away Left her screaming for help And I said how does it feel And I said how does it feel Like all God's promises are broken Like all God's promises are broken Like all God's promises are broken It's like dying on Christmas day It's like dying on Christmas day Before all gifts are open I knew a man who had a friend He loved in his own special way He held his friend close in his arms And his friend just melted away And I said how does it feel And I said how does it feel Like all God's promises are broken Like all God's promises are broken Like all God's promises are broken It's like dying on Christmas day It's like dying on Christmas day Before all gifts are open I had a love, a love of all loves But the dirtnap covered her well And the pain from the knife that cut us apart Won't stop on this side of hell And they said how does it feel And they said how does it feel Like all God's promises are broken Like all God's promises are broken Like all God's promises are broken It's like dying on Christmas day It's like dying on Christmas day Before all gifts are open
