See the girl at the table sippin' on wine Would you believe that once she was mine Oh lord how she loved me and never complained While doin' without for my foolish dreams She found some rainbows that I couldn't see While she learned to do without so many things She was slowly learning to do without me She's learning the ways of the wild side of life Some stranger is with her for the first time tonight While she learned to do without so many things She was slowly learning to do without me She did without diamonds on her wedding band But she could not do without the love of her man While she learned to do without so many things She was slowly learning to do without me While she learned to do without so many things She was slowly learning to do without me
