Sometimes a couple can be fighting a "civil war" with each other forgetting about the love that underlies their relationship. Beautiful country ballad.
Civil War
by Gabriel Heiser and Donna Galbraith
She leaves him every morning while he’s still asleep
She sees him every evening back at home
Not a word is said, and then it’s time for bed
But they just might as well be all alone
Chorus
In this civil war
Of lovers who’ve forgotten what they’re fighting for
Never mind who’s right
They’re caught up in the fight
And the battle lines are drawn across the bedroom floor
In this civil war
He takes his dinner with him to his room each night
He cannot bear to face her once again
He hears her in the hall, does she care at all?
He hasn’t held her close since God knows when
Chorus
Bridge
Every war takes its toll,
Every battle wounds a soul
Chorus
