Painted lips
I walked into a tavern just lookin' for some fun With lights so dim room filled with somke her story had just begun I listened while she told them about her life and fame We once knew love I broke all vows her lonely heart still aches No one will know the sleepless nights the bitter tears she sheds Or know how many prayers for me those painted lips have said She's dancing with a stranger and smiling all the while Although her heart is breaking her painted lips still smile No one will know the truth dear how I have schemed and lied Or know the loneliness and pain that painted lips can hide She's dancing with a stranger she'll smile and drink his wine Hidden behind those painted lips a broken heart you'll find So when you see a woman with painted lips so bright Don't be to quick to judge her a lady of the night Her smiles too often cover the sudden tears that start Behind her painted lips you'll find a woman's broken heart A woman's broken heart, a woman's broken heart, a woman's broken heart
