She gave him all her love and heart and soul
Never dreamed that he'd be the one to go
He left her crying by the window pane
Chasing shadows down a broken lane
She found his letters in an old shoebox
Empty promises and keys he never loved
He ran off for a smile with a touch of deceit
She lay broken but she did not accept defeat
The right woman, wrong man, but she found her way
Picked up her heart piece by piece each day
He left her shattered, she became strong
Independent once more, where she belonged
She learned to smile without the weight of him
Focused on the brighter day she'd let begin
Laughed with friends in the summer air
Danced alone, as if he was never there
Eyes wide open to a brand new dawn
She knew a word for spirit, never gone
Evenings on the porch, guitar in hand
Soulful songs, making memories grand
The right woman, wrong man, but she found her way
Picked up her heart piece by piece each day
He left her shattered, she became strong
Independent once more, where she belonged
Eyes wide open to a brand new dawn
She knew a word for spirit, never gone
Evenings on the porch, guitar in hand
Soulful songs, making memories grand
The right woman, wrong man, but she found her way
Picked up her heart piece by piece each day
He left her shattered, she became strong
Independent once more, where she belonged
