VETWIVES
After I married I had few friends
The friendships I had seemed to come to an end
They couldn't understand the pain in my life
They couldn't help me through all the strife
They didn't want to talk about Vietnam and the horrors of war
They wanted things to go on as they had before
So they stopped coming around and they didn't even call
Brick by brick they put up a wall
I thought I'd be alone for the rest of my life
My husband and me - a lonely VetWife
But one day a miracle happened my way
I'll never forget that wonderful day
I found a new group of friends who were so dear
They've helped me to open up and face down my fear
They understand just what I'm going through
And if you're a VetWife they'll be there for you
These new friends of mine are each the wife of a vet
They keep me going each day - they're my safety net
You know who you are each and every one of you
Your friendship is loving and your friendship is true
We will all stand together in the battle we fight
We will all stand together and do what is right
We will reach out to others who are living our lives
We're strong and courageous we are VETWIVES!
