She was washing the dishes 
When she burst into tears 
It was the time of the month 
She was up to her ears 
I put my arms round her neck 
I said sit down a while 
Cry as much as you like 
I'll do the dishes 
Tell me what's on your mind 
There's a boiling point 
That you're bound to reach 
When it's all your fault 
And you're half asleep. 
She's lucky she doesn't have to shave 
I'm so lucky I'm not doubled up with pain 

Her eyes were like pools 
Filled with newly wed tears 
She was sat doubled up 
With her hands on her ears 
I felt useless 
I smiled and I shrugged 
I was sweet as could be 
As I poured her some milk 
Here was my flower 
That was ready to wilt 

A fairy tale finish 
We flaked out on the floor 
It was match of the day 
On the TV what's more 
I fell asleep at half time 
We had had a right result 
It was kisses and hugs 
At the end of the day 
She's the one that I love
