When I wake up in the morning And you're laid there, quiet besides Just the sound of you quietly snoring Just the sight mouth open wide
It's that look that gets me through day When you're vulnerable and you're weak Before I make you your first coffee I kiss you gently on the cheek
Many women who are weaker Would not put up with what I've got Many women who are stronger Find themselves in similar knot
When they look back on my journey My behaviour and choice of men I may not be widely respected More a fool just now and then
Suffragettes sure had some courage But also have this land's support I had simply nobody Whenever I fell short
As I fold his morning paper As I put out his best shoes I often ask myself, 'What's better? ' To be ignored or to be used
And that weakness that I show I show to no-one else on Earth And the strength I have to deal with you That's been with me since my birth
Short I was of any compliment Short I was of any hope Long away I was from happiness Long in bath I'd like to sew
When they look back on my journey My behaviour and choice of men I may not be widely respected More a fool just now and then
Suffragettes sure had some courage But also have this land's support I had simply nobody Whenever I fell short
We are both weak and we are strong We are confident half the time No-one's free of imperfections If you could see your faults Like I see mine Like I see mine
When they look back on my journey My behaviour and choice of men I may not be widely respected More a fool just now and then
Suffragettes sure had some courage But also have this land's support I had simply nobody Whenever I fell short
No-one's free of imperfections If you could see your faults Like I see mine Like I see mine
