I

She's graceful to the eye

Elegant and tall

To see her walking by,

You'd think she had it all.

But I see her all the time now

A little red around the eyes now

Even so, it doesn't show

'Till I hear it in her words there

Just a little bit slurred there,

Then I know, I know …



CHORUS

That she's drinking again,

Started sinking again

What's she thinking of then?

Well I don't know.

But she's drinking again

Started sinking again

What's she thinking of then?

Well I don't know.



II

None of this is new

It all went down before

When she made it through

I thought she knew the score

But she's nothing left to hope with

And it's such a lot to cope with

Even still, I think she will,

She's trying really hard now,

But letting down her guard now

Until, until …



REPEAT CHORUS



She dreamed of being so fine,

She dreamed of having someone by her side

And even when her dream had died,

She dreamed that she could somehow make it right



III

Lipstick smudging her face

Hair all over the place

They say she's a disgrace

But they don't know

If she's drinkin' a lot

And if she says that she's not

Is she able to stop?

Well I don't know



REPEAT CHORUS
