She fell in love with a junkyard son from the wrong side of the town
And she let him deep into her heart before he let her down
Now she's countin' crows as the miles count down with no idea of where she's goin'
She's the lonely ghost of the empty roads and a trickster wind is blowin'
She took his hand on a gimcrack dare on the promise of tomorrow
And she's bartered what she had against what little she could borrow
Now it's one for sorrow, two for mirth, she's leavin' him behind her
She's the thornless rose of the silent roads and she's prayin' he won't find her
I am called Lioness, and welcome to my world.
