Keith Otten - Lyrics for She Stands Alone

	She Stands Alone
	...punch drunk, but not blind
	There’s a chance of showers - no chance of rain Romance has left her hollow cheeks sucked in & on the verge of welling up she pauses Too early for reflection Too late for gripping on She stands alone There’s a smile on her but not inside Romance has left her thin but not unkind She has half a mind to burn her clothes She hates the voice of reason & the fragile little smile She stands alone Waiting for the blush of love to leave her Draining from her face as surely as her heart deceived her He said he needed her He said he needed her - But now she stands alone There’s a hint of boredom - no hint of pain Romance has left her punch-drunk, but not blind She is harsh, but nowhere near an island She pouts a little softer But her eyes are still the same She stands alone Waiting for the blush of love to leave her Draining from her face as surely as her heart deceived her He said he needed her He said he needed her - But now she stands alone
