Days Of Our Wives:Roger Miller. - Album - Roger Miller - on MCA Records in 1986. (Intro) (Verse 1) She watches the soaps and pins all her hopes and her dreams. She lets her mind drift with the scripts that unfold on the screen. She can’t live like they live but each day she sits there and tries. Like sands through the hourglass so are the days of our wives. (Verse 2) One life to live one heart to give to her man. She’s raisin’ her babies and doing the best that she can. So she watches the soaps and sometimes just sits there and cries. Like sands through the hourglass so are the days of our wives. (Chorus) So fly away heart on the wings of make believe things. It’s nice to pretend and maybe cry at the end. She watches the soaps and sometimes just sits there and cries. Like sands through the hourglass so are the days of our wives. (Interlude) (Chorus) So fly away heart on the wings of make believe things. It’s nice to pretend and maybe cry at the end. She watches the soaps and sometimes just sits there and cries. Like sands through the hourglass so are the days of our wives. (Outro) Like sands through the hourglass so are the days of our wives. An Eighties smash from Kraziekhat.
