lyrics

She keeps vodka in a closet behind rows of high heel shoes
She says she ain't no drunk she just got nothing left to lose

She goes to bed at night praying the Lord would bring her home
She wakes up in the morning hungover and alone

She was raised to be a beauty queen to only matter from the outside
Her mama said make sure your man is always satisfied

She said wait for a rich one, girl, don't bother with our kind
This ain't about true love, it's about not falling behind

And she lives in a mansion with strangers all around
But when it comes to passion her dreams have all but drowned
She would give it all for just one day
With someone by her side
A loving man who wasn’t buying a thing when he made her his bride

She tried picking up young men downtown in a singles bar
Just another night alone, and just another scar

Her old friends across town don’t understand why she complains
They see her crashing down but they don’t feel her pain

And she lives in a mansion with strangers all around
But when it comes to passion her dreams have all but drowned
She would give it all for just one day
With someone by her side
A loving man who wasn’t buying a thing when he made her his bride
