And it's a long way back
One day she thinks of leaving him
She sees it on the video
Too much to ask
And then she thinks she'll start again
The trash is in the garbage can
Too much to ask
A mother and a mistress
From X Y Z to women 3
From where she's come
Of despair and inspiration
A garden with a patio
They ran away to paradise
It's a long way back
She waits until the kids have grown
From woman number one
From where she's come
And she thinks that she is lucky
But it's a long way home
From where she's come
But now she's only stuck with you
To woman number two
A sister to her sisters
At least she has a home to share
A place to have a barbecue
Now she's woman number three
Who smile and wave and ask her
Before she gave her friends a ring
And it's a long way back
A child who hoped her dreams come true
She made a combination
A man who comes to do her hair
From X Y Z to women 3
But it's a long way home
If they could live for just a day
In luxury and ecstasy
The envy of her neighbors
She hears it on the radio
She promised almost everything
But everything will have its price
The next she treats him like a king
The mystery of wonderland
But it's a long way home
Too much to ask
From X Y Z to women 3
