She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles that weren't there yesterday
|
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
|
What would he think if he saw her this way?
|
|
She picks up her apron in little girl-fashion as something comes into her mind
|
Slowly starts dancing rememb'ring her girlhood
|
And all of the boys she had waiting in line
|
|
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
|
You see ev'rywhere any time of the day
|
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
|
|
The photograph album she takes from the closet and slowly turns the page
|
And carefully picks up the crumbling flower
|
The first one he gave her now withered today
|
|
She closes her eyes and touches the house dress that suddenly disappears
|
And just for the moment she's wearing the gown
|
That broke all their minds back so many years
|
|
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
|
You see ev'rywhere any time of the day
|
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
|
|
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
|
You see ev'rywhere any time of the day
|
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
|
|
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
|
FADE
|
You see ev'rywhere any time of the day
|
An everyday housewife
