Richard Thompson - Another Small Thing In Her Favour lyrics

Thompson Got her ducks all in a row Got her bags all packed to go She'll find some other poor pilgrim who's braver. At least she looked me in the eye With her less than fond goodbye That's one small thing in her favour. Got the kids in the car Dreams will get you just so far Then life gives you bitter pills to savour. Still she kissed me once more As she gently slammed the door That's another small thing in her favour. She said she felt bad For the home that we had And the effort I'd wasted to save her. Oh, she told me as much As she slowly let out the clutch That's another small thing in her favour. Now it's a slippery slope To give her more rope And I didn't exactly enslave her. And she says I'm still apart Of her wandering heart That's another small thing in her favour. Now there's trouble and strife But we once had a life And for a while our vows didn't waver. I relied on her smile And her love for a while Well, that's another small thing in her favour. Oh, that's another small thing in her favour.
