You could see it, she was lonely
And it hurt enough to k**
That heart has been broken
Too many times for will
Careless with her kindness
But a mean old wife
So many tears were shed over
The many men of her life
Did you see old Missy
Living a life in vain
Too hard to be loving
Too easy to hide away
Wanted to talk to Missy
Just to try to lift her up
But desperation and anger
Like the wings of a dove
Seemed to carry her in the moment
Farther away
From those who tried love her
To the ones who'd make her pay
Did you see old Missy
Living a life in vain
Too hard to be loving
Too easy to hide away
You could see it behind the eyes
But she tried her best to hide
That heart's been broken
Too many times to try
Careless with kindness
She was superficial girl
Always rolling with the in-crowd
As the bad times unfurl
Did you see old Missy
Living a life in vain
Too hard to be loving
Too easy to hide away
Every cupboard full of liquor
But she struggled with the rent
There was no one to blame
Drink had the money spent
She got a daughter, turned thirty
She never could reconcile
They found her in that coachhouse
She's been gone for a while
Did you see old Missy
Living a life in vain
Too hard to be loving
Too easy to hide away
Just walking by the coachhouse
Couldn't watch her waste away
Too hard to love her
Just too easy to walk away
