I'm not a teacher, nor a preacher

I think I'm street wise

But I trip all the time

My lips are too small and you're too tall

Hard for me to stroke your hair

and do clear the air



I wanna feel we're the same under the skin

How can I be a queen without the King?

It's never easy to form a ring

I'd do anything to be your battery

I can be anything to make you happy

I swear to God



I was there when your heart was broken

I was there when you blamed yourself

I was there when you were giving up

Wish I'd had a word to extend



We live in a zoo, wondering who trusts who

Yes, sometimes they are flaky

and too greedy

I'm not a vower, but trying to be a wildflower

supposed to keep your peace of mind

but to leave you behind



I wanna feel we're the same as peas in a pod

For me to stay away from you is odd

I see a long path we've trod

I'd do anything if you want me to

You're the rain to make me bloom

So you're allowed to cry



I was there when your heart was broken

I was there when you were under clouds

I was there when you were raving at the world

I was there for you



I've been watching you become tougher

Now the rainy season is over

I'm scared, to tell the truth

Cause you're so free to fly away



I was there when your heart was broken

I was there when you were looking down

I was there when you lost your way

Wish I'd had a word to extend

Did you know?



I was there when your heart was broken

I was there when you blamed yourself

I was there when you were giving up

Wish I'd had a word to extend
