Wanna-be-song

Official lyrics from the album
Definitely Me
(© PolyGram 1997)

Oh, how I wish to be a woman
pale and silent
thin and fragile
who could bear to sit still
bear to sit still for hours

Og, how I wish to appear
like a cat
wide open eyes
occupied by my own mind
moving in waves
moving in waves for days

And oh, how I wish to be
what I feel like, sometimes
how I want to be strong and brave
I'm stronger than I have to
and as brave as I can be
but only when things
only when things have no value to me

And, oh, how I wish to be part of my songs
the way they're being parts of me
the places I go when I write
that's where I quietly observe,
silently observe my life

The places I go when I write
That's where I silently,
secretly observe my life
