She wasn't once upon a time

She used to dance when the band played

She used to be the trustin' kind

She's no stranger to the leaving

She's heard all the best goodbyes

Fallin' has a different meaning

To her, you're just another guy

She don't love you, she's just lonely

She don't know another way

To break free from what's been broken

Too many cowboys run away

So, forgive her if she's distant

She can't tell her heart to lie, no

You'll never be her one and only

She don't love you, she's just lonely

You can hold her in the moonlight

You can give her all the stars

You can promise her forever

But you'll never have her heart

She don't love you, she's just lonely

She don't know another way

To break free from what's been broken

Too many cowboys run away

So, forgive her if she's distant

She can't tell her heart to lie, no

You'll never be her one and only

She don't love you, she's just lonely

She don't love you

She don't love you, she's just lonely

She wasn't once upon a time

I remember her in the sunlight

I remember her when she was mine

Mine
