Heather Headley
Superwoman
Early in the morning I put breakfast at your table
And make sure that your coffee has its sugary crème
Your eggs are worm for greasy, your toast unlikely
All that stuff it means the moment kiss that used to greet me
And now you say the juice is sour, it used to be so sweet
And I can't help but to wonder if you're talking about me
We don't talk the way we used to talk, it's hurting so deep
I've got my pride, I will not cry, but it's making me big
I'm not your superwoman, no
I'm not the kind of girl that you can let down
And think that everything's okay
I am only human, only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
Yes, I'm talking about love from you to me
Uh, baby
I find my way through the rush hour
Try to make it home just for you
I wanna make sure that your dinner
Will be waiting for you
When you reach there you just tell me
You're not hungry at all
You say you'd rather read the paper
And you don't wanna talk
You like to think that I'm just crazy
When I say that you've changed
But I'm convinced I know the problem
You don't love me the same
And you're just going through the motions
And you're not being there
I've got my pride, I will not cry
But I can't help but care
I'm not your superwoman, no
I'm not the kind of girl that you can let down
And think that everything's okay
I am only human, only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
Yes, I'm talking about love from you to me
Uh, baby
Look into the corners of your 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 get my head for the last thing
And love you for you and turn your love to me
I'm not your superwoman, no
I'm not the kind of girl that you can let down
And think that everything's okay
I am only human, only human
This girl needs more than occasional hugs
As I'm talking about love from you to me
Uh, baby
If you're feeling the heart and you understand me
Stop right where you want, everybody sing along
I'm that kind of girl that could be so sane
But you got to reach out and you got to be sweeter to me
I'm not your superwoman, no
I'm not the kind of girl that you can let down
And think that everything's okay
I am only human
