Lyrics
0:05When she was 22 the future looked bright
0:12She's nearly 30 now and she's out every night
0:19I see that look in her face she's got that look in her eye
0:26She's thinking how did i get here and wondering why
0:34It's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over
0:41There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
0:48'Til the man of her dreams comes along
0:51Picks her up and puts her over his shoulder
0:56It seems so unlikely in this day and age
1:03She's got an alright job but it's not a career
1:11Whenever she thinks about it it brings her to tears
1:17'Cause all she wants is a boyfriend she gets one night stands
1:25She's thinking how did i get here i'm doing all that i can
1:32It's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over
1:40There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
1:47'Til the man of her dreams comes along
1:49Picks her up and puts her over his shoulder
1:54It seems so unlikely in this day and age
2:16It's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over
2:24There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
2:31'Til the man of her dreams comes along
2:33Picks her up and puts her over his shoulder
2:38It seems so unlikely in this day and age
2:46It's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over
2:53There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
When she was 22 the future looked bright She's nearly 30 now and she's out every night I see that look in her face she's got that look in her eye She's thinking how did i get here and wondering why It's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say 'Til the man of her dreams comes along Picks her up and puts her over his shoulder It seems so unlikely in this day and age She's got an alright job but it's not a career Whenever she thinks about it it brings her to tears 'Cause all she wants is a boyfriend she gets one night stands She's thinking how did i get here i'm doing all that i can It's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say 'Til the man of her dreams comes along Picks her up and puts her over his shoulder It seems so unlikely in this day and age It's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say 'Til the man of her dreams comes along Picks her up and puts her over his shoulder It seems so unlikely in this day and age It's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say
