You were so beautiful Like a child so young and full of life Seems a hundred years ago You saw everything So much more tragedy than good
You even watched the world grow cold
And even when your world was shakin´ Even when your breath was taken Even when your blue eyes turned to gray
Small town debutantes and queens Every woman has a name Cocktail waitresses with dreams Every woman has a name And every girl whose love survives A broken heart to stay alive You signed your picture in the frame Every woman has a name
You had your love affair Some were perfect but most of them were pain Seems a hundred years ago
It took you to the highest hill Left you standing frozen in the rain But you still feel the afterglow
And even when your world was shakin´ Even when your breath was taken Even when your blue eyes turned to gray
Housewives cryin´ on the phone Every woman has a name Sacred sisters all alone Every woman has a name And even on the coldest day When the kids are gone, moved away It´s lonely now There´s no one there to hold your hand And play
See it written on the grave Every woman has a name
