waiting, watching the clock
it's four o'clock it's got to stop tell him, take no more
she practices her speech as he opens the door
she rolls over pretends to sleep as he looks her over
she lies and says she's in love with him
can't find a better man she dreams in color, she dreams in red
can't find a better man can't find a better man can't find a better man
talking to herself
there's no one else who needs to know she tells herself
memories back when she was bold and strong and waiting
for the world to come along
swear she knew, now she swears he's gone
she loved him she don't want to leave this way
she needs him that's why she'll be back again
can't find a better man can't find a better man can't find a better man
