Katie Jo - Pawn Shop Queen

The jewel of your eye
Sparkling so bright
You were the gold in my shine
Safe behind the glass
Now as time has passed
Pages yellow
Your words don't last
I believed that we were one of a kind
Then you cast me aside
Here I am a pawn shop queen
Ball gown ripped right down the seam
A precious diamond losing its gleam
Pretty picture in a broken frame
All this grace in a pile of shame
Just waiting to be given away
Too late to slow the break
Too late to stop and save
A love only worth a simple trade
Now I see the cracks
And all she has I lack
You kept it all perfectly intact
I believed that we were one of a kind
Then you cast me aside
Here I am a pawn shop queen
Ball gown ripped right down the seam
A precious diamond losing its gleam
Pretty picture in a broken frame
All this grace in a pile of shame
Just waiting to be given away
I thought if the tables turned.
And you wanted to return
I'd run to your arms to be reclaimed
Sitting among here among the spurned
I see that treasure, it must be earned
So this beauty lasts
Beyond a dent or scratch
I kept it all perfectly intact
Here I am a pawn shop queen
Ball gown ripped right down the seam
A precious diamond losing its gleam
Pretty picture in a broken frame
All this grace in a pile of shame
Just waiting to be given away
Just waiting to be given away
