The other woman finds time to manicure her nails
|
The other woman is perfect where her rival fails
|
And she's never seen with pin curls in her hair
|
|
The other woman enchantes her clothes with French perfume
|
The other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room
|
There are never toys that's scattered everywhere
|
|
And when her own man comes to call on her
|
He'll find her waiting like a lonesome queen
|
Cos when she's by his side
|
It's such a change from old routine
|
|
But the other woman will always cry herself to sleep
|
The other woman will never have his love to keep
|
And as the years go by the other woman
|
Will spend her life alone
|
