(mary chapin carpenter)
Im not made of stone, Im not made of glass
Ive been alone, every one has
Ive learned to forgive what Im not
I just try to live with what Ive got
Maybe Ive got what you need
If you need something that not only feels right
Something thats based on a real life
One thing thats worth every page of the deal
Not some old line, or rose-colored dream
Not some other time, you know what I mean
When I tell you that this is all that it seems and thats real
How far can I crawl out on this limb
Theres so far to fall and here comes the wind
Theres so much to lose, but love doesnt wait
So Ill be a fool who found out too late
But Ive been a fool for far lesser things
And I want something that not only feels right
Something thats based on a real life
One thing thats worth every page of the deal
Not some old line, or rose-colored dream
Not some other time, you know what I mean
When I tell you that this is all that it seems, and thats real
Not some old line or rose-colored dream
Not some other time, you know what I mean
When I tell you that im, Im all that I seem, and thats real
And thats real
And thats real
And thats real
