Her life is already over

When she was 20, the future looked bright.
But she's 30 now and she's out every night.
I see that look in her face, she got that look in her eye.
She's thinking 'how did I get here?' and wondering why...

It's sad but it's true.
How society says, her life is already over.
There's nothing to do and there's nothing to say.

Till the man of her dreams comes along,
picks her up and puts her over his shoulder.
It seems so unlikely in this day and age.

She got an alright job but it's not a career.
Wherever she thinks about, it brings her to tears.
Cause all she wants is a boyfriend,
But she gets one-night stands.

She's thinking 'how did I get here?'.
I'm doing all that I can.
