Eleanor McEvoy She Had It All lyrics

She's graceful to the eye
Elegant and tall
To see her walking by
You'd think she had it all

But I see her all the time now
A little red around the eyes now
Even so it doesn't show

'Till I hear it in her words there
Just a little bit slurred there
Then I know, I know


That she's drinking again
Started sinking again
What's she sinking within?
Well, I don't know

But she's drinking again
Started sinking again
What's she thinking of then?
Well, I don't know


None of this is new
It all went down before
When she made it through
I thought she knew the score

But she's nothing left to hope with
'Cause it's such a lot to cope with
Even still, I think she will


'Cause she's trying really hard now
Letting down her guard now
Until, until

She starts drinking again
She starts sinking again
What's she sinking within?
I don't know

But she's drinking again
Started sinking again
What's she thinking of then?
Well, I don't know

But she dreamed of being so fine
And she dreamed of having someone by her side
And even when her dream had died
Still she dreamed that she could somehow make it right


Lipstick smudging her face
Hair all over the place
They say she's a disgrace
But they don't know

If she's drinkin' a lot
And if she says that she's not
Is she able to stop?
I don't know, I don't know
