A Woman Stole My Girl With A Line
I’m lost for words to say
Thinking’s tongue tied
Riding the boundaries of despair
With no place to hide
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
What changed her mind
She gave me no hint I’m unfair
Not even a clue
Just a brief note she signed
With a thank you
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
What changed her mind
I don’t know what she’s hoping to find
And why she picked now to say goodbye
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
What changed her mind
I’m lost for words to say
Thinking’s tongue tied
Riding the boundaries of despair
With no place to hide
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
What changed her mind
I don’t know what she’s hoping to find
And why she picked now to say goodbye
She gave me no hint I’m unfair
Not even a clue
Just a brief note she signed
And thank you
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
A woman stole my girl with a line
What changed her mind
