First time she heard it hurt the most
Each time she thinks it hurts the worst
Whatever happened to cherish, honor and protect
Her dream world before her dream was wrecked
First time she heard it hurt the most
Each time she thinks it hurts the worst
When he told her what he'd done
Running around with some other one
She couldn't believe this turn of luck
Devastation as though she'd been struck
Thunderbolt, lightning strike in her skies
Little girl tears in this woman's eyes
She tried finding all those words of expression
How to explain these feelings beyond depression
A true man, a true man's love
Is it too much to ask
Her reach for peace on earth as shattered glass
Trust betrayed while she saw their love as special
Didn't he know what he'd done
Pulling trigger to this gun
Like a shot through her heart
The pain leaves her stunned
Twisting hard she questioned
Had she done something wrong
Is it really all her fault
She always tried and tried
Girl and woman know realities of commitments she made
To this man, to this love, to this bond, to their song
When he told her what he'd done
Running around with some other one
She couldn't believe this turn of luck
Devastation as though she'd been struck
Thunderbolt, lightning strike in her skies
Little girl tears in this woman's eyes
Strange news, anger sedates the pain
Then pain sedates the anger
Real news, a dream in pieces
Just another empty hole
Picking up pieces has an effect on the soul
Each piece places its own weight on the mind
Each missing piece, an ocean leaving shore behind
Life goes on no matter, no matter what we do
Have to get past these rough waters she's going through
It's a long, long river and an even longer swim
Reality is in how we swim, not about how we win
