I am a woman of heart and mind
With time on her hands
No child to raise
You come to
me like a little boy
And I give you my scorn and my praise
You think I'm like your
mother
Or another lover or your sister
Or the queen of your dreams
Or just another
silly girl
When love makes a fool of me
After the rush when you come back down
You're
always disappointed
Nothing seems to keep you high
Drive your bargains
Push your
papers
Win your medals
Fuck your strangers
Don't it leave you on the empty
side
I'm looking for affection and respect
A little passion
And you want
stimulation-nothing more
That's what I think
But you know I'll try to be there for
you
When your spirits start to sink
All this talk about holiness now
It must be the
start of the latest style
Is it all books and words
Or do you really feel it?
Do you
really laugh?
Do you really care?
Do you really smile
When you smile?
You
criticize and you flatter
You imitate the best
And the rest you memorize
You know the
times you impress me most
Are the times when you don't try
When you don't even try
