Valerie

(album: Somebody Besides Yourself - 2000)

Hey, Hey
Hey, Hey
Who's that messing with your mind?
Who's that playing with your head?
Who's that screwing up your life?
Who's that sleeping in your bed?
Selfless martyr
He steals or barters what he needs
But you are smart enough to see

Valerie, don't believe him anymore
Your destiny gives you a reason for walking out that door
For walking out that door
For walking out
Hey, Hey
Hey, Hey

Where did all the happy times go?
Where's the love you dreamed about so?
Trust is something hard to find ya know
But it's something you can't live without though
He's a lucky charmer
Made of armor for a fool
But your love for him was true

Valerie, don't believe him anymore
His vanity one day will deceive him and even up the score

Hey, Valerie, don't believe him anymore
Your destiny gives you a reason for walking out that door
For walking out that door

Get off of your knees and dry your eyes
Cause you always said self-pity was something that you despised
Hear what I'm saying to you

Hey Valerie, don't believe him anymore
Your destiny gives you the freedom for walking out that door
For walking out that door
For walking out that door

Hey Valerie, don't believe him
Valerie, don't believe him anymore
