I'm only a woman

Of flesh and bone

And I wept much

We all do

I thought I might die alone

But I had never(x11) met you

So baby be good to me

I've got nothing to give you, you see

except everything, everything, everything, everything

All the good

And the bad

Cause I've been bad

I've lied, cheated, stolen, and been ungrateful for what I had

And I'm afraid habits rule my waking life

I'm scared

And I'm running in my sleep

For you

But all of the oceans and rivers and showers will wash it all away

And make me clean

For you

Cause I had never(x15) met you



So let's take a loan out

Put it down on a house

In a place we've never lived

in a place that exists

In the pages of scripts and

the songs that they sing

And all the beautiful things

That make you weep but

Don't have to make you weak



Cause I never(x27) loved somebody

The way I loved you.
