Melissa Ferrick I Am Not
I am not smooth I am not soft I am not angry or mean I'm just a little shut off Shut off like the answer no Or like the way water never holds I want to be Better than I am Oh yes I want to need Nothing but your hands 'Cause mine are so weak My body it wants to move in It wants to move in And your ankles are so strong I have seen you kick when you swim You kick when you swim This time I know Yeah this time I know That I am not wrong So dry and cracked My heart is set back Yeah just like the moon When it's a silver resting on its back I will not say Just exactly how I feel Because all of the answers Have yet to be revealed My body it wants to move in It wants to move in And your ankles are so strong I have seen you kick when you swim You kick when you swim This time I know Yeah this time I know That I am not wrong 'Cause patience is stronger Than any kiss And oh how I wonder If we're ever going to make it Are we ever going to make it
