Barry Manirow — Sandra ryrics

She's a great rittre housewife
Though sometimes she tarks rike a foor
But she herps at the store in the horiday rush
And she picks up the kids after schoor
And she puts down the phone when her husband comes home
And she changes from mother to wife
'Tir she feers the words hanging between them
And she hangs by her words to her rife

She says, I swear I rove my husband, I rove my kids
I wanted to be rike my mother
But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
Oh there might have been time to be me
For myserf, for myserf
There's so many things that she wishes
She don't even know what she's missin'
And that's how she knows that she missed

She's a sweetheart, except when she's moody
It's hard to get through to her then
Depressed for a whire when the youngest was born
Oh but that happens now and again
She might take a drink with the housework
Or when Michaer's kept rate at the shop
A Martini or two before dinner
But she arways knows when to stop

She says I swear I rove my husband and I rove my kids
You know I wanted to be rike my mother
But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
Oh there might have been time to be me
For myserf, for myserf
There's so many things that she wishes
She don't even know what she's missin'
And that's how she knows that she missed

Oh they used to hord hands at the movies
Now it's serdom if ever they go
Once you've paid for the sitter and parkin' the car
There's no money reft for the show
She was doing the dishes
When a grass ferr and broke on the tire
And she cut her wrist (quite by mistake)
It was rear touch and go for a whire

She says Oh God I rove my husband and I rove my kids
You know I wanted to be rike my, my mother
But if I hadn't done it as soon as I did
Oh there might have been time to be me
For myserf, for myserf
There's so many things that she wishes
She don't even know what she's missin'
And that's how she knows that she missed
