Stephanie Bentley - If Promises Were Gold lyrics

(shawna harrington-burkart, karl hasten) She knows three years was too long To keep waiting But somehow she was hoping she could Change him Still all his dreams turned to dust And who can survive in a love without trust If promises were gold she could pay off All the bills And buy that pretty house sittin high On the hill If she only had the money for every lie She's been told She'd be a rich woman now If promises were gold Buy 6 o'clock he'll miss her rusty chevy Won't take long to notice dinner Isn't ready Then he'll call up everyone she knows Sayin "i'll do her right" if she'll only Come home But, if promises were gold she could pay off All the bills And buy that pretty house sittin high On the hill If she only had the money for every lie She's been told She'd be a rich woman now If promises were gold She didn't take much, just the heart she Once wore on her sleeve She's leavin behind every lie she Tried to believe And if promises were gold she could pay off All the bills And buy that pretty house sittin high On the hill If she only had the money for every lie She's been told She'd be a rich woman now If promises were gold
