She Loves in the Dark

They all know the truth about him,
They see behind all of the lies he tells
But her heart is so pure
She is naive, she is in love.
No one can change her mind,
She loves in the dark.

He lies with other women,
She still smiles when he comes home.
The drink is his true love,
But she nurses him to sobriety.

Her family, friends
Everyone knows.
They know she needs to be freed
Freed from this nightmare of a man
But she loves in the dark.

Will someone, anyone
Show her the light?
