Someday I’ll be there Country weekends love affairs I may not have that family tree But I’ll be damned if I do not succeed Cause one day everyone will know I’m the star of my own show Living life in luxury inside a Tatler magazine

Verse 1

Believe me, I’m speechless I wish that I could say those words You whispered so sweetly And maybe I’ll regret this but I’ve gotta be honest ‘Cause we made a promise, I won’t break it now I wish I could hold you But how could I be so unfair to lead us to nowhere? We’ve both been down that road before And if this should end us please know that I’m helpless I’ve made up my mind

Chorus

Verse 1

I took our pictures off the wall today Cause I can’t stand it when you look at me that way I won’t sleep in that bed any more I’d rather be lying here on this hardwood floor I found your jacket with your front door key You took the shoes I bought to walk away from me I can’t even pour myself a little wine Cause every glass is stained in your lipstick shine
