"Mrs. Green" lyrics

Mrs. Green, take a good look at yourself
In that mirror on the wall
Have the nerve to tell yourself
That everything he ever did was not your fault
As you'll pick out what you wear today
Don't let yourself be afraid to be
Who you are
And don't be afraid to see the truth
About the woman that you are

Mrs. Green, when I met you
You were hoping for his ring upon your hand
And you always made excuses
For the things that he could not understand
But you must have known, down deep inside
It's better off it stopped before it went too far
He's not enough of a man to understand
The woman that you are

I wanna help you fix what's wrong
You've been a-hurting for too long
Things like this are complicated
So I'll wait until you're ready to move on

I wanna help you fix what's wrong
You've been a-hurting for too long
Things like this are complicated
So I'll wait until you're ready to move on

Mrs. Green, I need to tell you
Something, if I can be so bold
My heart has been here waiting as I watched
What you had with him grow cold
But I understand if you need time
Letting go of his hold on your mind
It must be hard
And just know I'm here waiting
And wanting all the woman that you are
Remember
I'm here waiting and wanting all the woman that you are

Mrs. Green, take a good look at yourself
In that mirror on the wall
