| So your grandmother sounds to me
|
| A woman I would be proud to be
|
| And you say she reminds you of me
|
| Every little boy is so naïve
|
| I will not be a victim of romance
|
| I will not be a victim of circumstance
|
| Chance or circumstance or romance, or
|
| Any man who could get his dirty little hands on me
|
| Oh, oh
|
| No, oh
|
| So your grandfather sounds like me
|
| Head up, shoulders back, and proud to be
|
| Every little girl is so naïve
|
| Falling in love with the first man she sees
|
| I will not be a victim of romance
|
| I will not be a victim of circumstance
|
| Chance or circumstance or romance, or
|
| Any man who could get his dirty little hands on me
|
| Oh, oh
|
| No, oh
|
| When we were in love (if we were)
|
| When we were in love
|
| I was an eagle
|
| And you were a dove
|
| Today I’ll feel something other than regret
|
| Pass me a glass and a half-smoked cigarette
|
| I’ve damn near got no dignity left
|
| I’ve damn near got no dignity left
|
| I will not be a victim of romance
|
| I will not be a victim of circumstance
|
| Chance or circumstance or romance, or
|
| Any man who could get his dirty little hands on me
|
| Oh, oh
|
| No, oh
|
| When we were in love (if we were)
|
| When we were in love
|
| I was an eagle
|
| And you were a dove
|
| When we were in love (if we were)
|
| When we were in love
|
| You were a dove
|
| And I rose above you and preyed |
