If Promises Were Gold
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She knows three years was too long
to keep waiting
But somehow she was hoping she could
change him
Still all his dreams 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 sittin 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
Buy 6 o'clock he'll miss her rusty Chevy
Won't take long to notice dinner
isn't ready
Then he'll call up everyone she knows
Sayin "I'll do her right" if she'll only
come home
But, if promises were gold she could pay off
all the bills
And buy that pretty house sittin 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 leavin behind every lie she
tried to believe
And if promises were gold she could pay off
all the bills
And buy that pretty house sittin 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
