Dreams Of The Everyday Housewife Lyrics

Dreams Of The Everyday Housewife lyrics

(Chris Gantry)
She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles
That
weren't there yesterday
And thinks of the young man that she almost
married
What would he think if he saw her this way?
She picks up her
apron in little girl-fashion
As something comes into her mind
Slowly
starts dancing rememb'ring her girlhood
And all of the boys she had waiting
in line
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see
ev'rywhere any time of the day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good
life for me
The photograph album she takes from the closet
And slowly
turns the page
And carefully picks up the crumbling flower
The first one
he gave her now withered today
She closes her eyes and
Touches the house
dress that suddenly disappears
And just for the moment she's wearing the
gown
That broke all their minds back so many years
Oh, such are the
dreams of the everyday housewife
You see ev'rywhere any time of the
day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
Oh, such are
the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see ev'rywhere any time of the
day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
Oh, such are
the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see ev'rywhere any time of the
day
An everyday housewife
Who gave up the good life for me...
