that little band of gold left a ring around her finger first time she took it off in seven years the only man that ever loved her left her for another now she s had her fill of lonely nights and cryin bitter tears so she puts on her make up takes her gown down from the closet and meets the baby sitter at the door then she gets a scary feelin wonderin if she s still appealin cause tonight she s goin places she ain t never been before she s lookin for those long forgotten feelin s hopin this time they re a blessing not a curse she s lookin for a love to last forever or till mornin whichever one comes first in the dim light of a barroom she sits down at a table then looks around in hopes she ll see a friend but the world is full of strangers when you have to start all over back on your own and learnin how to look for love again she s lookin for those long forgotten feelin s hopin this time they re a blessing not a curse she s lookin for a love to last forever or till mornin whichever one comes first
