Letras: Stephanie Bentley. If Promises Were Gold.

She knows three years was too long to keep waiting
But somehow she was hoping she could change him
Still all his dreams turned to dust
And who can survive in a love without trust

If promises were gold she could pay off all the bills
And buy that pretty house sittin' high on the hill
If she only had the money for every lie she's been told
She'd be a rich woman now if promises were gold

Buy 6 o'clock he'll miss her rusty Chevy
Won't take long to notice dinner isn't ready
Then he'll call up everyone she knows
Sayin' "I'll do her right" if she'll only come home

But, if promises were gold she could pay off all the bills
And buy that pretty house sittin' high on the hill
If she only had the money for every lie she's been told
She'd be a rich woman now if promises were gold

She didn't take much
Just the heart she once wore on her sleeve
She's leavin' behind every lie
She tried to believe

And if promises were gold she could pay off all the bills
And buy that pretty house sittin' high on the hill
If she only had the money for every lie she's been told
She'd be a rich woman now if promises were gold
