That little band of gold left a ring around her finger 
First time she took it off in seven years 
The only man that ever loved her left her for another 
Now she's had her fill of lonely nights and cryin' bitter tears. 
So she puts on her make-up, takes her gown down from the closet 
And meets the baby sitter at the door 
Then she gets a scary feelin' wonderin' if she's still appealin' 
'Cause tonight she's goin' places she ain't never been before. 
She's lookin' for those long forgotten feelin's 
Hopin' this time they're a blessing not a curse 
She's lookin' for a love to last forever 
Or till mornin', whichever one comes first. 
In the dim light of a barroom she sits down at a table 
Then looks around in hopes she'll see a friend 
But the world is full of strangers when you have to start all over 
Back on your own and learnin' how to look for love again. 
She's lookin' for those long forgotten feelin's 
Hopin' this time they're a blessing not a curse 
She's lookin' for a love to last forever 
Or till mornin', whichever one comes first...
