Superwoman

I've centered my whole life around your every need

And I got the groceries and I kept the house real clean

And I never once complained

'Cause I love you

And I waited here at home while you went out with all your friends

Yeah, I got into your groove, Babe, although I never quite fit in

I was a little offbeat

And not on cue

Do you even see me standing here before you?

Do you even hear me or do I bore you?

Hey, I really feel kind of stupid just trying to be everything to you

But it does no good, I could never be that cool, yeah

Have I ever told you how I paint you in my mind?

But when I put the brush to canvas I find you hard to recognize

'Cause you're looking straight at me,

Right in my eyes

And suddenly I feel me reaching trying to find the real you

And you smile and pacify me and happily I play the fool

Is there something I can get you?

It's what I do

Are you hungry? Are you thirsty? Are you empty?

Is it getting cold in here or is it just me?

Hey, I really feel kind of stupid just trying to be everything to you

But it does no good, I could never be that cool, yeah

And I am only now accepting I am human, I cannot be Superwoman

Oh, it's so easy to love you, but it's hard to be that cool, yeah?

I'm not Superwoman - don't know how to fly

I'm not Superwoman - I gave it my best try

I'm not Superwoman - someday I'm gonna die

What a life?

Hey, I really feel kind of stupid just trying to be everything to you

But it does no good, I could never be that cool, yeah

And I am only now accepting I am human, I cannot be Superwoman

Oh, it's so easy to love you, but it's hard to be that cool, yeah?
