I'm a fool to be kind to you: |
|
It's not what the men in your life tend to do |
|
Must be so strange; finding someone who only accepts you |
|
Rejection's a lesson you've had |
|
You're lost in the anger you feel for your dad |
|
But, oh, how he loves you, |
|
There's no doubt |
|
With all his high hopes for you |
|
I could push you away |
|
I could say |
|
I don't want you no more |
|
I could drive you right into the floor |
|
And tell you you're useless; |
|
Get used to it lady |
|
But I'm big in believing that, baby, you're bigger than that |
|
It's respect for yourself that you lack |
|
And success; it's a mood that you choose |
|
With every step |
|
I want to grow old with you |
|
To hold your old hand and look back on our youth |
|
I will be strong. |
|
Times I might not |
|
I'm only human |
|
I could push you away ... |
|
With every step |
|
So, be free like a bumble bee |
|
Spread wings like a bird |
|
Squawk like a peacock and |
|
Let your voice be heard, it's |
|
OK I have no lock, key or a cage |
|
You've got to want to stay |
|
I won't push you away |
|
I won't say |
|
I don't want you no more |
|
I won't drive you right into the floor |
|
But I'll tell you you're beautiful; |
|
Get on with it lady |
|
Coz I'm big in believing that, baby, you're bigger than that |
|
It's respect for yourself that you lack |
|
And success; it's a mood that you choose |
|
With every step |
|
So take a step |
|
It's just step by step |
