Well, I said he had a lot of potential,
he was only misunderstood
You know, he really didn't mean to treat me so bad,
he wanted to be good
And I swore one day I would tame him,
even though he loves to run hog wild
Just call me Cleopatra, everybody,
cause I'm the Queen of Denial

Well I knew he didn't have any money,
that's why he couldn't buy me a ring
Oh, and just because he bought himself a brand new pickup truck,
really didn't prove anything
And he never had to say he loved me,
I could see it everytime he smiled
Just call me Cleopatra, everybody,
cause I'm the Queen of Denial

Oh Queen of Denial
buyin' all his alibis
Queen of Denial,
just floating down a river of lies

Now I'm not gonna jump to conclusions,
or throw away this perfect romance,
even though I caught him dancing last night
with a girl in leopard skin pants
Oh he's probably stuck in traffic,
and he'll be here in a little while
Just call me Cleopatra, everybody,
cause I'm the Queen of Denial

Queen of Denial,
buying all his alibis,
Queen of Denial,
just floating down a river of lies
