Verse 1: She’s getting used to walking in a straight line From the lines on her face, she’s lived more years than her age It’s been ages since she could look into the mirror She doesn’t want her life to mirror an empty stage Pre-Chorus 1: People passing by don’t care to know her name Her life’s worth caring about Regardless of the shame
Chorus: Desiree ---- She’s looking for faith ------ Tired of her old ways Her baby’s cryin’ her name Desiree -- Stop running away
Verse 2: Her mother hasn’t really talked with her much She couldn’t ask for much help every time that she fell The man she fell in love with gave her such a hard time Well it’s time she stopped feeling sorry for herself
Pre-Chorus 2: She’s one of those someone like Jesus can’t ignore She may have little left But there’s love waiting for
