Tie That Binds

What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
In a room so lonely and cheerless
2
Sits a woman, all alone
3
By her, a cradle stands empty
4
And o'er it she sobs and she moans
5
"My husband, he no longer loves me
6
His love and our dear baby died
7
I'll leave him at home forever
8
And out in this old world abide"
9
She packed baby's things in a bundle
10
While the tears rolled down her cheeks
11
"I never, no never, would leave him
12
If ever a kind word he'd speak"
13
Just then the door softly was opened
14
A man took the bundle away
15
He laid the things out on the table
16
And softly to her, he did say
17
"One little stocking for you, dear
18
One little blue shoe is for me
19
The baby's wrap and its smallest cap
20
We'll keep in memory
21
One lock of hair is for you, dear
22
See how the golden curls shine
23
We'll keep a smile while she sleeps, for
24
She is the tie that binds"
