She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles that weren't there yesterday
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
What would he think if he saw her this way
She picks up her apron in little girl fashion as something comes into her mind
Slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood
And all of the boys she had waiting in line
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere anytime of the day
And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me
The photograph album she takes from the closet and slowly turns the page
And carefully he picks up the crumbling flower
The first one he gave her now withered with age
She closes her eyes and touches the housedress that suddenly disappears
And just the moment she's wearing the gown
That broke all their minds back so many years
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere anytime of the day
And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere anytime of the day
And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere anytime of the day
She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles that weren't there yesterday
Ela olha no espelho e encara as rugas que ainda ontem não estavam lá
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
E pensa no jovem com quem quase se casou
What would he think if he saw her this way
O que ele pensaria se a visse assim?
She picks up her apron in little girl fashion as something comes into her mind
Ela pega seu avental de maneira infantil enquanto algo vem à sua cabeça
Slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood
Começa a dançar lentamente, lembrando de sua juventude
And all of the boys she had waiting in line
E todos os rapazes que a esperavam na fila
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
Ah, tais são os sonhos da dona de casa comum
You see everywhere anytime of the day
Você vê em todos os lugares, a qualquer hora do dia
And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me
E a dona de casa comum que deixou a diversão de lado por mim
The photograph album she takes from the closet and slowly turns the page
O álbum de fotografias que ela tira do armário e lentamente vira a página
And carefully he picks up the crumbling flower
E cuidadosamente ele pega a flor desmoronando
The first one he gave her now withered with age
A primeira que ele deu a ela agora murcha com a idade
She closes her eyes and touches the housedress that suddenly disappears
Ela fecha os olhos e toca o vestido de casa que de repente desaparece
And just the moment she's wearing the gown
E apenas no momento em que ela está usando o vestido
That broke all their minds back so many years
Que desfez de todas suas memórias há tantos anos
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
Ah, tais são os sonhos da dona de casa comum
You see everywhere anytime of the day
Você vê em todos os lugares, a qualquer hora do dia
And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me
E a dona de casa comum que deixou a diversão de lado por mim
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
Ah, tais são os sonhos da dona de casa comum
You see everywhere anytime of the day
Você vê em todos os lugares, a qualquer hora do dia
And everyday housewife who gave up the good time for me
E a dona de casa comum que deixou a diversão de lado por mim
Ah such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
Ah, tais são os sonhos da dona de casa comum
You see everywhere anytime of the day
Você vê em todos os lugares, a qualquer hora do dia
