(Carly Simon/Jacob Brackman)
|
Listening for your footsteps
|
Just waiting like a fool
|
Burning with a fever
|
Only you can cool
|
|
The clock beside my pillow
|
Has ticked away the night
|
Like a heartbeat mocking me
|
Until the light
|
|
Gotta stop these thoughts about you
|
Gotta learn to live without you
|
Gotta find some freedom for this weary slave
|
'Cause I'm hungry for you
|
And I'm longing for you
|
And I'm burning for you
|
|
I worship your opinions
|
I imitate your ways
|
I try to make you grace me
|
With a word of praise
|
|
However much I tell myself
|
That I'm strong and free and brave
|
I'm just another woman
|
Raised to be a slave
|
|
Slave, nothing but a slave
|
Mind of a slave
|
Body of a slave
|
|
I find I gave away the soul
|
That I wanted you to save
|
I'm just another woman
|
Raised to be a slave
|
|
hungry for you
|
And longing for you
|
Burning for you
|
And I'm longing for you
|
burning for you
|
And I'm yearning for you
|
Longing for you
|
