(Steve Wilkinson/William Wallace)

|
She never planned on
|
The life she got
|
Married young
|
And then she just got caught
|
Years fly by
|
When you're raising kids
|
She's just a carbon copy
|
Of what her momma did
|
|
She was a perfect picture
|
Of a perfect wife
|
Out of focus
|
In her perfect life
|
So safe, so warm
|
No hint of danger
|
Wasting years
|
With the perfect stranger
|
|
But though luck's
|
The only luck she's known
|
And tough luck
|
To build your life on hope
|
(Oh) But she bought the deal
|
She made the vow
|
She'd walk away
|
But she's just too proud
|
To ever throw in the towel
|
Tough luck
|
|
Convinced herself
|
That life made perfect sense
|
Two-car garage
|
And a while picket fence
|
Sometimes she feels
|
Like such a hypocrite
|
She's just a face in the portrait
|
And that's about it
|
|
But though luck's
|
The only luck she's known
|
And tough luck
|
To build your life on hope
|
(Oh) But she bought the deal
|
She made the vow
|
She'd walk away
|
But she's just too proud
|
To ever throw in the towel
|
Tough luck
|
