She knows three years was too long to keep waitin
|
But somehow she was hopin she would change him
|
Still all his words turned to dust
|
And who can survive in a love without trust
|
|
If promises were gold she could pay off all the bills
|
And buy that pretty house sitting high on the hill
|
If she only had the money for every lie she's been told
|
She'd be a rich woman now, if promises were gold
|
|
By six o'clock he'll miss her rusty Chevy
|
Won't take long to notice dinner isnt ready
|
Then he'll call up everyone she knows
|
Sayin I'll do her right if she'll only come home
|
|
If promises were gold she could pay off all the bills
|
And buy that pretty house sitting high on the hill
|
If she only had the money for every lie she's been told
|
She'd be a rich woman now, if promises were gold
|
|
She didn't take much
|
Just the heart she once wore on her sleeve
|
She's leaving behind
|
Every line she tried to believe
|
|
If promises were gold she could pay off all the bills
|
And buy that pretty house sitting high on the hill
|
If she only had the money for every lie she's been told
|
She'd be a rich woman now, if promises were gold
|
