Countrysong - Ephemera

You said go for it, I said stop

I’m more than willing to give this up

This is not meant for me

I’m as helpless as a girl can be

You said come, come on, I said wait

It’s impossible, it’s too late

This is not meant for me

I’m as helpless as a girl can be

I still fear though I know it all by heart, now

It all by heart now…

I still don’t dare, though I’ve learned every part, now

Every part now…

But if I had been stronger

If I had been brave

I could have given what I never gave

If I had been better

If I had been the best

You would be proud of me

Like all the rest

You would be proud of me

Like all the rest

You said try once more, I said well

This will not work, so I have to tell

This is not meant for me

I’m as helpless as a girl can be

I still fear though I know it all by heart, now

It all by heart now…

I still don’t dare, though I’ve learned every part, now

Every part now…

But if I had been stronger

If I had been brave

I could have given what I never gave

If I had been better

If I had been the best

You would be proud of me

Like all the rest…

You could be proud of me

Like all the rest…
