She never cheats you.
Her reflection starts to only reflect you.
Standards start to fall shortly after her heart.
When money is short, she always shares her part.
Anything is good enough if it comes with you.
The things she never liked are somehow likable with you.
Disagreements go too far, and her tears are ignored.
But if his ship needs saving, she’s there to help him climb aboard.
All she wants is to be the only woman for you.
She can’t even see she’s being consumed by you.
She betrayed herself to love a man.
Is it ever too late to make a new plan?
Everyday she watches the sun rise and set, but
She just doesn’t have the strength to give life her best.
How can a woman be so good to you?
But when it comes to herself, she’s all out of fuel.
She never cheats you, but she cheats herself.
Life is too short to live for someone else.
