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
