Early in the morning

I put breakfast at your table

And I make sure that your coffee

Has its sugar and cream

Ooh, your eggs are over easy

Your toast done lightly

All that's missing is your morning kiss

That used to greet me

Now, now you say the juice is sour

Well, it used to be so sweet (well)

And I can't help but to wonder

If you're talking about me (oh, you're talkin')

We don't talk the way we used to

And it's hurting me so deep

I got my pride, I will not cry

But it's making me weak

I'm not your superwoman

I'm not the kind of girl that you can lay down

And think that everything's okay

Boy, I am only human (whoa, whoa, whoa)

This girl needs more than occasional

Hugs as a token of love from you to me (ooh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby)

I find a way through the rush hour

Trying to make it home just for you

I want to make sure that your dinner

Will be waiting for you

But when you get there you just tell me

You're not hungry at all

You said you'd rather read the paper

And you don't want to talk

You'd like to think I'm just crazy [crazy, crazy]

When I say that you've changed

Well, I think I know the problem

You don't love me the same

You're just going through the motions

And you're not being fair

I got my pride, I will not cry

But I can't help but care

I'm not your superwoman (oh, no, no, no) [oh, no, no]

I'm not the kind of girl that you can lay down

And think that everything's okay

Boy, I am only human (I'm only human)

This girl needs more than occasional

Hugs as a token of love from you to me

Oh, baby, look into the corners of your mind {into the corners of my mind}

I'll always be there for you through good and bad times

But I can't be that superwoman that you want me to be

I'll give my love {love}, everlasting love {hey} if you return love to me

I'm not your superwoman (oh, no, no, no) [oh, no, no]

I'm not the kind of girl that you can lay down

And think that everything's okay

Boy, I am only human (I'm only human)

This girl needs more than occasional

Hugs as a token of love from you to me

Of, if you feel it in your heart

And you understand me

Stop right where you are

Everybody sing along with me

Ooh, hoo, hoo, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (oh, ho, ho…)

I'm the kind of girl that can treat you so sweet

But you've got to realize that you've got to be sweeter to me, yeah

I need love

I need just your love

I don't want to be super, super, superwoman (oh, no)

I'm not the kind of girl that you can lay down

And think that everything's okay

Boy, I am only human (I'm only human)

This girl needs more than occasional

Hugs as a token of love from you to me

I'm not your superwoman (oh, no, oh, no, oh, no)

I'm not the kind of girl that you can lay down (don't let me, don't let me down)

And think that everything's okay

Boy, I am only human (only, only, only, only human, yeah)

This girl needs more than occasional

Hugs as a token of love from you to me

I'm not your superwoman (I'm not your superwoman)

I'm not the kind of girl that you can lay down

And think that everything's okay {don't even try it}

Boy, I am (don't) only human (don't let me down, I'm only human)

This girl needs more than occasional

Hugs as a token of love from you to me
