Verse 2.
In the mirror I saw him and I closely watched him
I thought how he looked out of place
He came to the woman who sat there beside me
he had a strange look on his face
The big hands were calloused he looked like a
mountain for a minute I thought I was dead
But he started shaking his big heart was breaking

Harp: F
