lyrics

Can you see a shift in my mind? Can you tell I'm no longer tired? You woke me up early.
My mind's moving clearly.
I'm no longer cold at night.
I see you shine like a dime.
I feel you breathing at night.
This time I see it, you gave what I needed. You've got nothing but love for me now.
But a woman like you could have any man you want. Breaking hearts around the country.
Yes a woman like you could have anything she wants. Take any man easily.
Wherever you are.
Do you know what you do to men?
Would you even care if I said?
I'd tell you now gladly, but you're sleeping soundly while I'm lying awake in your bed. Just another reason I've learned,
Never trust pretty girls.
You're used to be doted on, praised and then chased around.
You'd string me along when you could.
But a woman like you could have any man you want. Breaking hearts around the country.
Yes a woman like you could have anything she wants. Take any man easily.
Wherever you are.
