The words came to me today
To say the things I want to say
to fill my heart with hope again
That somewhere out there are good men
The though went through my mind today
Of how I wantt things to go my way
But what else can I really say
Except I guess there is no one there
I look, but can't connect
I push away everyone I cling to now
I want to have a meaningful relationship
The only question is how
How do I let myself love again
How can I trust a man
The amount of men I actually trust
I can ccount all on one hand
How the hell do I do it
Knowing that there is the chance of getting my heart broke
Feeling the fear rise inside me
As all my hopes go up in smoke
Are there any good guys left in vegas
Who actually want to know me for me
Who aren't players or attention whores
Like most of the men I meet
From Jokers to smokers to motorboat captains
From preppies to punks and everyone in between
They are all sluts and kings in their own mind
And I'm being honest, not even trying to be mean
I want to find a good guy in Vegas
Who doesn't mind cuddling and watching a movie
Who doesn't try to seduce me on the first date
But likes to smile and laugh and wants me to be me
I don't think they exist at all
Maybe I'm not looking in the right places
Either way it doesn't matter
I shouldn't even think about dating
Since I am looking for a man of character
Who wouldn't even think of cheating
Even when the toughest times came
Or he was thinking of retreating
Besides who is going to want a single mother
Who has to restrict her time with him
That can't even make plans until the last minute
Because she has to wait for her ex to make a decision
Only a man with understanding
And a heart that can accept the trials of mother
I doubt he exists in Vegas
Guess I will never know one way or another
