Living In Exile lyrics

Lyrics

Once I had all, had everything
The real princess, the ruling queen
I walked with arrogance, with vanity
But I made sure my heart
They wouldn't see

One day I woke up it was gone
The castle kingdom all were lost
Now I have nothing left
Nowhere to go
And my heart that's full of doubt
Is all I've left to show

She is living in exile

I'll walk 3,000 lonely miles
I'll start a new life on my own
Don't know what I'm waiting for
But when it comes
You know I'll be ready
A new woman

I know my head is my worst enemy
Swallowed too much of it and started to believe
I know my heart is my worst enemy
Swallowed too much of it and started to believe
