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?
