the ugly duckling story told again my way.

| Lyrics: |
you say that I am not what you desire
I'm not your sweetened, steaming cup of tea
but I'm confident that you have been misguided
you just haven't seen the woman inside of me
I might be slightly jagged around my edges
and most likely I could use a lesson in grace
but don't underestimate my invitation
I could satisfy your craving if you'd taste me
I am just a woman
longing for just a man
and I bear beauty's colors
underneath this old faded gown
you believe that I'm not moving forward
and I'll admit it that I'm happy where I stand
but if you'll give me half a chance
and just one dance
I'll make it worth your while to slow things down
don't terminate my night before your dawn comes
don't throw away my heart because my face is worn
sometimes fate is hidden by the shadows of skin
and until you scratch my surface you will never comprehend
that I am just a woman
longing for just a man
and I bear beauty's colors
underneath this old faded gown
I am just a woman
hungry for just one man
and I bear beauty's colors
underneath this old faded gown
here underneath this old faded gown
