(Mary Chapin Carpenter) |
|
I'm not made of stone, I'm not made of glass |
|
I've been alone, every one has |
|
I've learned to forgive what I'm not |
|
I just try to live with what I've got |
|
Maybe I've got what you need |
|
If you need something that not only feels right |
|
Something that's based on a real life |
|
One thing that's worth every page of the deal |
|
Not some old line, or rose-colored dream |
|
Not some other time, you know what I mean |
|
When I tell you that this is all that it seems and that's real |
|
How far can I crawl out on this limb |
|
There's so far to fall and here comes the wind |
|
There's so much to lose, but love doesn't wait |
|
So I'll be a fool who found out too late |
|
But I've been a fool for far lesser things |
|
And I want something that not only feels right |
|
Something that's based on a real life |
|
One thing that's worth every page of the deal |
|
Not some old line, or rose-colored dream |
|
Not some other time, you know what I mean |
|
When I tell you that this is all that it seems, and that's real |
|
Not some old line or rose-colored dream |
|
Not some other time, you know what I mean |
|
When I tell you that I'm, I'm all that I seem, and that's real |
|
And that's real |
|
And that's real |
|
And that's real |
