Linda Davis - If Promises Were Gold Lyrics
(shawna harrington-burkhart/karl hasten)She knows three years was too long to keep waitinBut somehow she was hopin she would change himStill all his words turned to dustAnd who can survive in a love without trustIf promises were gold she could pay off all the billsAnd buy that pretty house sitting high on the hillIf she only had the money for every lie shes been toldShed be a rich woman now, if promises were goldBy six oclock hell miss her rusty chevyWont take long to notice dinner isnt readyThen hell call up everyone she knowsSayin Ill do her right if shell only come homeIf promises were gold she could pay off all the billsAnd buy that pretty house sitting high on the hillIf she only had the money for every lie shes been toldShed be a rich woman now, if promises were goldShe didnt take muchJust the heart she once wore on her sleeveShes leaving behindEvery line she tried to believeIf promises were gold she could pay off all the billsAnd buy that pretty house sitting high on the hillIf she only had the money for every lie shes been toldShed be a rich woman now, if promises were gold
