Cleopatra, Queen Of Denial Lyrics

Pam Tillis Cleopatra, Queen Of Denial

Well I said, he had a lot of potential
He was only misunderstood
You know, he didn?t really mean to treat me so bad
He wanted to be good

And I swore one day I would tame him
Even though he loved to run hog wild
Just call me Cleopatra everybody
?Cause I?m the queen of denial

I knew he didn?t have any money
Yeah that?s why he couldn?t buy me a ring
Oh and just because he bought himself a brand new pick-up truck
Really didn?t prove anything

And he never had to say he loved me
I could see it every time he smiled
Just call me Cleopatra everybody
?Cause I?m the queen of denial

Oh queen of denial
Buyin? all his alibis
Queen of denial
Floatin? down a river of lies, yeah

Well I?m not gonna jump to conclusions
Or throw away this perfect romance
Even though I saw him dancin? last night
With a girl in a leopard skin pants

Yeah, he?s probably stuck in traffic
And he?ll be here in a little while
Just call me Cleopatra everybody
?Cause I?m the queen of denial

Oh queen of denial
Buyin? all his alibis
Queen of denial
Just floatin? down a river of lies, oh yeah
