  Well I said he had a lot 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 loved to run hog wild

 Just call me Cleopatra everybody

 'Cause I'm the Queen of Denial

I knew he didn't have any money

Yeah 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 every time 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

 Floatin' down a river of lies

 Now I'm not gonna jump to conclusions

  Or throw away this perfect romance

 Even though I saw him dancin' 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

 Oh Queen of Denial

 Buyin' all his alibis

 Queen of Denial

 Floatin' down a river of lies
