I once wished upon a star,
For God to give me love from afar.

That love lasted 18 years,
But the love fell apart and left me in tears.

My dreams and purpose were forever gone,
I just don't know what went wrong.

Some people just give up and go,
and stop going with the flow...

To start your life all over again,
To find another to call a best friend.

Its so hard the second time around,
Can true love again, somewhere be found.

You fall in love when your young,
You party and hang just having fun.

Soon you marry and life is great,
You feel so alive, this must fate.

You start a family, hanging memories on the wall,
You never dreamed, that he would leave and drop the ball.

Pressure and stress brought him down,
you remember dancing on the weekends and tearing up the town.

You wonder how and why as you lay in bed at night,
All you remember is his arms around you holding you tight.

You were suppose to be by his side hand in hand forever,
Going through life's journey together.

Now your all alone after 18 years,
Picking up the pieces of your heart in tears.

You lay in bed every night in pain,
You want to run away and disappear in the rain.

You pick up and move on and try to forget,
Those 18 years and the day you first met.

You start to laugh and live again,
Looking for another to call a best friend.

Finding it harder to just find someone true,
who will make you laugh when your feeling blue.

Your open to meeting many new faces,
Dating on the weekends in differnt cool places.

You see a light at the end of the tunnel,
You want to go through another life's funnel.

You want to believe in that second chance,
You so want another fantasy love romance.

My life is like a country song,
I don't what I ever did wrong.

I was married for 18 years,
Trying to hide the pain, and wipe away my tears.

He was my best friend, I gave him my heart,
I thought we would last and never part.

How can someone just ditch and run,
When he used to love me and we used to have fun.

I did all I could just to hold on,
Was my whole life a lie, was he just a con.

I know how to treat a man thats true,
I know how to make him laugh, and never feel blue.

He didn't want the family life,
He wanted his freedom and not the stress or striff.

Now I have to start fresh with a brand new face,
To know him and accept him and love his embrace.

Will I ever find that second chance,
To again have that excitement with a kiss and a slow dance.
