Lyrics The Partner Nobody Chose - Guy Clark

The Partner Nobody Chose

She’s a rose with rose with no room to grow
She’s a light in the night with nowhere to shine
She’s the partner that nobody chose
She’s tried and she’s tried
And she’s tried to keep on loving
But every man she loved broke her heart
She’s fallen and stumbled
And stumbled and fallen
And no one picked her up when she fell
She’s stood up with hope up
That someone would show up
Someday you never can tell
She’s lonesome and nobody knows
