*** Mittelprächtige Country-Ballade, die erfolgreichste Single des "Starting over"-Albums, welches insgesamt ein sehr mäßiges Album war.
Die Lyrics finde ich ich gut, weil aus dem wahren Leben gegriffen. Die Geschichte eines (von so vielen) gebrochenen Hochzeitversprechen.
Auszüge aus den den Lyrics:
"As pure as my gown of white I stood by his side And promised that I’d love him till the day I died Lord, please forgive me even though I lied ’cause you’re the only one who knows just how hard I tried."
und
"He’s the one who left me too many times alone In a three bedroom prison I tried to make a home My love slowly died but the fire inside still burned And the arms of a stranger was the only place left to turn." |
