Every Woman Has a Name lyrics

You were so beautiful

Like a child young and full of life

Seems a hundred years ago...

You saw everything

So much more tragedy than good

You even watched the world grow cold

And even when your world was shaken'

Even when your breath was taken

Even when your blue eyes turned to grey

Small town debutantes and queens

Every woman has a name

Cocktail waitresses with dreams

Every woman has a name

And every girl who's loves survives

A broken heart to stay alive

You signed your picture in the frame

Every woman has a name

You had some love affairs

Some of were perfect

but most of them were pain

It seems a hundred years ago

It took you to the highest hill

Left you standing frozen in the rain

But you still feel the afterglow

And even when your world was shakin'

Even when your breath was taken

Even when your blue eyes turned to gray

Housewives cryin' on the phone

Every woman has a name

Sacred sisters all alone

Every woman has a name

And even on the coldest day

When the kids are gone, moved away

It's lonely now

There's no one there to hold your hand

And play
