You're holding bits of styrofoam With your face painted on to your friends You listen to them whine and moan About everything you can't understand Can I just say I don't feel the light, But darkness descends once more into my life And suddenly we're all

Just because I'm a woman My mistakes are no worse than yours Yes, I've made my mistakes But listen and understand I can see you're disappointed By the way you look at me And I'm sorry that I'm not The woman you thought I'd be So when you look at me

If it's the last night it oughta be left for lovin', girl I don't know if you'll understand But I'm hoping that you'll follow me down to the waterway I'll be there if you change your mind Listening to the ticking of the hands on a clock working overtime
