[Verse 1]
A little white house with black wooden shadows
A porch with its columns all covered with vine
My broken dreams house where he lives with another
But this was supposed to be mine
[Verse 2]
Two little children that look like their daddy
With the same smile and the same eyes that shine
The only thing wrong I'm not their mommy
But they were supposed to be mine
[Chorus]
He's given to her what he promised to me
The plans that we made never can be
For each night he holds and crosses another
And she is supposed to be me
He's given to her what he promised to me
The plans that we made never can be
For each night he holds and crosses another
And she is supposed to be me
And he is supposed to be mine
A little white house with black wooden shadows
A porch with its columns all covered with vine
My broken dreams house where he lives with another
But this was supposed to be mine
[Verse 2]
Two little children that look like their daddy
With the same smile and the same eyes that shine
The only thing wrong I'm not their mommy
But they were supposed to be mine
[Chorus]
He's given to her what he promised to me
The plans that we made never can be
For each night he holds and crosses another
And she is supposed to be me
He's given to her what he promised to me
The plans that we made never can be
For each night he holds and crosses another
And she is supposed to be me
And he is supposed to be mine
