(Steve Wilkinson/William Wallace)
She never planned on
The life she got
Married young
And then she just got caught
Years fly by
When you`re raising kids
She`s just a carbon copy
Of what her momma did
She was a perfect picture
Of a perfect wife
Out of focus
In her perfect life
So safe, so warm
No hint of danger
Wasting years
With the perfect stranger
But though luck`s
The only luck she`s known
And tough luck
To build your life on hope
(Oh) But she bought the deal
She made the vow
She`d walk away
But she`s just too proud
To ever throw in the towel
Tough luck
Convinced herself
That life made perfect sense
Two-car garage
And a while picket fence
Sometimes she feels
Like such a hypocrite
She`s just a face in the portrait
And that`s about it
But though luck`s
The only luck she`s known
And tough luck
To build your life on hope
(Oh) But she bought the deal
She made the vow
She`d walk away
But she`s just too proud
To ever throw in the towel
Tough luck
