lyrics

Your white angel in the snow, she, turned to grey
Your white wedding gown has yellowed and started to fray
You made it to the alter, got in under the wire
When your dreamboy left you high it put out your fire

The dust kicked up when you came down that red clay aisle
You looked down at your belly and it made you crack a smile
You thought he would be there to help you shoulder the load
But when push came to shove his shoulder was already long gone

When the chips were down she got up and kept movin' on
Some stood by her side and others were gone
She showed up for what she had to, and did what she must
And those who she thought would shine, disappointingly turned to rust

As time went on she stoked her fire and it sparked up red hot
She found out what she was made of and what those were not
Now when she walks around she can hold her head up high
The past may have come and gone but it still lives on in her eye
