Lyrics
Her Own Life
She goes around with her head held high
Lets nobody close like you or I
She needs noone to be that special one
She lives her life in the public eye
At her front door she says goodbye
Her private space when all is said and done
Chorus
She once let someone get close to her
But things didn't go as she planned
Betrayal is all she remembers
Anything but sweet surrender
Verse
She works and plays with all her friends
But every time the evening ends
She's the one who goes home alone
She's the number one party person
Good times have been that is certain
But then she's the one that goes home alone
Chorus
She once let someone get close to her
But things didn't go as she planned
Betrayal is all she remembers
Anything but sweet surrender
Verse
She's right on top of her career
She'll never ever let you near
On that fact you can place a bet
She'll never ever let you near
In her past she still fears
In her past she has regrets
Something in the past she can't forget
