Big Deal-Dinah Washington/Connie Haines

It wasn't quite the story she had hoped for herself Hers had a different ending but it must have been about someone else There was a time well spent, there was a time well wasted She never loved him then and it was time to face it And she knows, everything will change Cause one day it was a red striped blouse And the next a wedding dress A big deal, high heels tripping over herself And you know nobody's impressed Staring into space trying to feel alive He's barely out of school already with a dead end nine to five Shouldn't he be happy, she's waiting at home She keeps on calling, he turns off his phone And she knows, everything will change Cause one day it was a red striped blouse And the next a wedding dress A big deal, high heels tripping over herself And you know nobody's impressed Ever since she read the note on the wall Saying "Honey, I'll be leaving tonight" She's sleeping with her eyes wide open Her body trembles with sickly notions She hopes everything'll change Cause one day it was a red striped blouse And the next a wedding dress A big deal, high heels tripping over herself And you know nobody's impressed
