Heartbreak on the Front Porch
acoustic melodic countryLyrics
[Verse]
She sits alone on the front porch swing,
Whiskey bottle now her wedding ring,
Her baby's cry ain't heard no more,
Lost him to what's behind that door.
[Verse 2]
Neighbors used to whisper, now they just stare,
A mother’s love lost in disrepair,
Photos faded, memories turned to lies,
Another sip helps her close her eyes.
[Chorus]
Oh, heartbreak on the front porch,
A mother’s love is left scorched,
Silent nights and empty days,
She let her boy slip away.
[Verse 3]
Toys rust in the backyard rain,
Little shoes by the window pane,
His laughter gone, replaced by tears,
Haunted by these wasted years.
[Verse 4]
Town folks say it ain't their place,
To judge the sorrow on her face,
But every street she walks alone,
Feels like a path she once disowned.
[Chorus]
Oh, heartbreak on the front porch,
A mother’s love is left scorched,
Silent nights and empty days,
She let her boy slip away.
