Victoria stopped and looked inside my heart
She asked if she could stay for a while
She said, “it looks like a place I could call home
But baby that’s just not my style”
Victoria’s daddy left when she was one
He found his home in a bottle of beer
Her mother took care of all her needs
But she couldn’t take away all her fears

Victory can I help you
Can I ask you why
You would want to use me
To be your blanket tonight

As she grew she was called victory
To over come all the painful years
But that name never spoke a word
To the many nights she drowned in her tears

Victory can I help you
You know it might be nice
To not be your lover
But be your friend tonight

Victoria cried when she opened up her heart
To show all the pain inside
She said, “before tonight I’ve never done this before,
It’s just so much easier to hide”

Victoria stopped and looked inside my heart
She said I’m gonna’ stay for a while
