SHE THINKS THAT SHE'LL MARRY
(Judy Rodman / Duane Orender)
Judy Rodman - 1985
He keeps her in diamonds, he brightens her days
He flies her in style to the cities he plays
But she's not aware that in every town
Others warm to his favours when she's not around
He took her to Paris, he took her to Spain
He took her for granted, wouldn't give her his name
She lives all alone in a house on a hill
An' thinks that she'll marry, but she never will
He told her that someday, he'd make her his own
They'd take a vacation together in Rome
Then she spoke these words, though they tore her apart:
"I'm tired of you playing these games with my heart"
"Oh, I've given you the best years of my life
You've given nothin', but maybe some lies
I've lived all alone in a house on a hill
Thinkin' we'd marry, but we never will"
So time brought it's wisdom, now clearly she sees
She's learned to be happy an' she loves bein' free
That he longs to hold her an' make her his wife
'Cause there was no happiness left in his life
She lives all alone in a house on a hill
With good friends an' good times, her life is filled
In his lonely mansion, he longs for her still
An' he thinks that she'll marry, but she never will
No, she never will
