Gladys Knight
Superwoman (Live)
[Spoken Intro]
You remember this one?
I think I remember this one
I think I do, I'm not sure

[Verse 1]
Early in the morning
I put breakfast on 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

[Verse 2]
Now, now you say your juice is sour, yeah
Well, it used to be so sweet (Yes)
And I can't help but wonder, baby
If you're talking about me (Oh, you're talkin')
(We don't talk)
We don't talk the way we used to (Used to)
And it's hurting me so deep
I got my pride (I will not cry)
But it's making me weak
[Chorus]
I'm not your 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 (Woah, woah, woah)
This girl needs more than occasional
Hugs as a token of love from you to me
(Ooh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah)

[Verse 3]
I find my way through the rush hour
Trying to make it home just for you (Well, hurry up, girl)
I want to make sure that your dinner
Will be waiting for you
But when you get there you just tell me (What do ya tell me?)
You're not hungry at all
You said you'd rather read the paper
And you don't want to talk

[Verse 4]
You'd like to think that 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
[Chorus]
I'm not your superwoman (Oh, no, 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

[Bridge]
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, everlasting love (Love, hey)
If you return love to me

[Chorus]
I'm not your super, super, superwoman
I'm not the kind of girl that you can lay down
(Don't lay me down, don't lay me down)
And think that everything's okay
Boy, I am only human
(Only, only, only, only human)
This girl needs more than occasional
Hugs as a token of love from you to me
