She Thinks That She’ll Marry

He keeps her in diamonds
He brightens her days
He flies her in style to the cities he plays
But she's not aware that in every town
Others warm to his favors when she's not around

He took her to Paris
He took her to Spain
He took her for granted
Wouldn't give her his name

She lives all alone
In a house on a hill
And thinks that she'll marry
But she never will

He told her that someday
He'd make her his own
They'd take a vacation together in Rome
Then she spoke these words
Though they tore her apart:
"I'm tired of you playing these games with my heart."

"Oh, I've given you the best years of my life
"You've given nothin' but maybe some lies
"I've lived all alone in a house on a hill
"Thinkin' we'd marry, but we never will."

So time brought it's wisdom
Now clearly she sees
She's learned to be happy
And she loves being free
That he longs to hold her
And make her his wife
Cause there was no happiness left in his life

She lives all alone in a house on a hill
With good friends and good times
Her life is filled
In his lonely mansion
He longs for her still
And he thinks that she'll marry
But she never will
No, she never will
