Rachael Yamagata I Don't Want To Be Your Mother
I don't want to be your mother There's two sides to each other You gotta meet me halfway Won't you let me be your lover?
Don't be no lone survivor I'm not going anywhere I'm just trying to tell you how i feel This one-sided love affair
How do i get the man in you to see I'm so much more than the mother in me
I don't want to be your savior Forgive your bad behavior You gotta meet me halfway 'cause there's so much to discover
Don't be no lone survivor I won't leave you in the cold I'll be standing right beside you When you're feeling all alone
The only way to set yourself free Is letting go of the savior in me
Baby, don't you shut me out Baby, don't shut down on me I'm not going anywhere I'm not going anywhere I only want to bring you back to me
Baby, please don't shut me down Time won't bring me back to you I'd be lying to myself I'd be lying to myself And that's the only thing i cannot do
I want to be your sweetheart I want to be your lady Oh, i want to get swept away Let me cry for a change
Don't need no lone survivor I need someone by my side We don't have to make it perfect Oh, but maybe we could try
Love me for the woman that i am And i will love you for being just a man Love me for the woman that i am And i will love you for being my man
