Cinderella Shoe ft. Lois Mahalia Lyrics

Standing here together Across all these years

Across the decades Up to our eyes... in tears

I never thought we'd make it, We just punched the clock and faked it

Cause everything was slipping past, And the thing that I held onto was a whiskey glass

Yeah, I never thought we'd make it, Didn't think that I could take it

But every time we'd reach the end, I'd turn to you cause you're my friend

Well we weren't made for each other

We had to carve and cut and hew

Til my cold blue iron heart could nestle in

My Cinderella shoe

You know you kind of surprised me, When you stepped up for our girls

Seemed to care about as much, for the soccer as the curls

Yeah, you surprised me too, When you gave us a second chance

And you struck up the tune, For a brand new dance

Well we weren't made for each other

We had to carve and cut and hew

Til my cold blue iron heart could nestle in

My Cinderella shoe

Seems like just yesterday when your knee touched mine

And our eyes met across that deep dark divide

Cause we were both married with children

And it seemed we missed the boat

And that our love for each other would never… find a home

Well we weren't made for each other

We had to carve and cut and hew

Til my cold blue iron heart could nestle in

My Cinderella shoe

Well we weren't made for each other

We had to carve and cut and hew

Til my cold blue iron heart could nestle in

My Cinderella shoe

Til my cold blue iron heart could nestle in

My Cinderella shoe
