Filling a hole I thought could be filled
With a family of my own
He was perfect and fit the bill
Showed me a love that was unknown
Money and glamour all around
Nobody has ever been this kind
How could I be this lucky?
Like a bomb he blew my mind
Now years have gone by
And expecting a baby girl
I'm laying in bed, feel a power of might
Skin turning black and blue
Man, he really didn't mean it
It wasn't him his foot didn't fit the shoe
"I'm sorry" I've heard time after time
Now another woman is pregnant
Why is he still a man of mine?
What has become of my life?
This isn't what I had planned
All I wanted was to be a mother and a wife
I fear that promise will be broken
Not this time, this is my life!
I couldn't see the warnings even when we shout
With a comparison of my dreams and reality
My life has really turned
Upside down and inside out
