Mustang

I thought he was my knight in shining armor
He came along and stole my heart,
He knew that I had been hurt before
Said he'd protect me, let me make a new start.

How was I to know he was just as hurt as me
That it was just his way to come along and fix things
He didn't have what it takes to go the distance, now you see
We were both caught up inside an unrealistic fantasy.

    CHORUS:
    I'm so tired of empty daydreams
    Of handsome knights in shining armor
    Riding in on a great white steed
    Just to save my sweet honor.

    Well, I'm gonna buy myself a Mustang
    A convertible with a V8.
    In the sunlight it's gonna glisten
    Custom paint job, yeah it's gonna look great
    I'll put on some big ol' fat mag wheels
    and paint it bright with lots of flames.
    I'll ride off in the sunset on my great white horse of steel.

      Yeah, I'll get my own damn white stallion!

I loved his quiet strength and how it blanketed me
Kept me warm deep inside; his gentle touch and loving eyes
I never felt this so alive, but it was just a fantasy
Filled my soul with strength, treated me just like a prize.

He said he'd never leave me, he'd help me heal my heart,
I loved him more and more every minute, every hour.
How was I supposed to know I'd have to make a brand new start.
He liked to listen to himself singing empty promises in the shower!

    CHORUS:
    I'm so tired of empty daydreams
    Of handsome knights in shining armor
    Riding in on a great white steed
    Just to save my sweet honor.

    Well, I'm gonna buy myself a Mustang
    A convertible with a V8.
    In the sunlight it's gonna glisten
    Custom paint job, yeah it's gonna look great
    I'll put on some big ol' fat mag wheels
    and paint it bright with lots of flames.
    I'll ride off in the sunset on my great white horse of steel.

      Yeah, I'll get my own damn white stallion!
    REPEAT 2ND HALF OF CHORUS...
