Her husband left her for her best friend
They'd been together for nearly forty years
She's never seemed to care about the present
Her dreams once came to be her worst nightmares
Watched her life go down the drain of dark, lies
Oh how those nights faded in her eyes as he gazed away
Looked so deep that he almost got lost and found a new life
Momma lost her fourth man and headed out to the gate
Of a place they now call Lonely Ville
Where every one's lost someone in their lives
A place where no one's ever walk down the aisle
We're all hoping we'll find someone before we die
But we've dreamed and nothing seemed to come
So what's the point of dreaming anyway
If you'll never find that special some one
Everyone that comes in your life
Just seem to be using you for happiness
An' in return, you find that it's been a lie
You'll never say I do, and your life will be a mess
I'm a grown up man, ready to start looking
For something that will complete my life
Though, I've got some people who really care
Maybe find that perfect love, that's what I'm hoping
Maybe someone will finally get me outta here
From this place they now call Lonely Ville
Where every one's lost someone in their lives
A place where no one's ever walk down the aisle
We're all hoping we'll find someone before we die
But we've dreamed and nothing seemed to come
So what's the point of dreaming anyway
If you'll never find that special some one
Yea, I'm praying that I'll get out off Lonely vile
An' maybe find something in life that's worthwhile
Maybe see myself walking down the aisle
