She looks him dead in the eyes
She cries
As she continues he tries
To call "lies"
She goes to pick up the phone
So alone
She hopes her thoughts are all wrong
They're not
He travels down from his house
To her town
Listens to the words from her mouth
He frowns
She wakes in the morning confused
Feels used
To the test, her eyes are glued
It's true
Now she's a mother forever
She was ecstatic and young
And drunk
She did it just for the fun
So dumb
At the party she arrives
Legal high
She locks her eyes on a guy
Sex drive
She's getting ready to leave
To see
If she is gonna be pleased
She's easy
Puts on her revealing clothes
For show
A shame that she doesn't know
How it goes
Now she's a mother forever
Jumps out the shower with glee
Happy
To be alive and be free
And naïve
She finishes eating lunch
Comes undone
Contemplating her old love
The one?
She wakes that morning depressed
So stressed
How could he ever resist?
Her caress
Her tears bring her into sleep
Quietly
She doesn't know what to think
Who was he?
Now she's a mother forever
He said he wasn't her guy
No lies
She looks him dead in the eyes
She cries
