Description

Short Song Description: A woman approaching middle age regrets the way she has spent her life.

Long Song Description: A woman approaching middle age regrets how she chose to spend her life, but is too afraid to change it. Instead, she settles for an unsatisfying marriage and a sad life.

Story Behind the Song: I suspect there are a lot of "Jonis" out there; people who thought it would be better to live the life that others had expected of them, only to find out that they've wasted their life and are basically stuck.
